Thanks! That is exactly what I need.
I really like what I see so far (6 hours trying to convert our old build
system) with gradle and look forward to using it. Gradle is actually (once
I get what you suggested below working) a very easy tool to use. Replacing
our current custom build process (very complex ant scripts) with gradle is
going to give us a much more manageable/repeatable process. We've been
wanting to migrate to Ivy for a while now; but have dreaded having to
retrofit a lot of our build scripts to use ivy. Gradle came along at the
right time and we are making a clean break and redoing our build process.
