Hi all, I've made a concerted first attempt at replacing the ant build with gradle building within Eclipse. Check out branch (I recommend you do this in a different repo dir than your usual, in case eclipse gets confused)
task/JAL-3225_Integration_Gradle_building_into_Eclipse and in Eclipse go to File->Import... Gradle/Existing Gradle Project [Next >] [Next >], enter the Project root directory, [Finish], cross fingers to have a go. You may need to install the Eclipse plugin Bbuildship Gradle Integration 3.0" first, but with some luck Eclipse will suggest this when you import. As usual, the documentation was a bit scattered, and also not unusually it didn't seem to be as straightforward as the scattered documentation suggested. Not only is the Eclipse gradle plugin required, but a Gradle eclipse plugin is also needed... To run a specific task, go to the "Gradle Tasks" tab in the pane that sits at the bottom right of my Eclipse window (use _your_ Eclipse window though), and find it in either the build or distribution folders. >From what little I've seen so far, I'm not sure it's going to match the >integration with ant, but we'll see. Two things that still need to be done: 1) test dir not happy. It needs to be happy. 2) Formatting. I made a new eclipse project file so have not yet configured it to reformat files in the same way. I suspect it would be easy to copy configuration from old project file to new, but haven't looked yet. Any pointers welcome. There's an issue JAL-3225 I'm keeping updated.
