Howdy,
after some fiddling with the class path configuration, I've finally
managed to compile my whole project. Hurray!
I have a big pile of unmanaged and mostly unversioned dependency jars.
The best way I found to add these to the class path, was to configure
the unmanagedClasspath. Works fine, but requires the invocation of a
custom method, which might be avoidable.
Searching through the archives, I found mention of an artifactPattern
approach, that could work for me. But I was not able to make sense of
the information. The OP described a similar usecase and came up with a
solution, but not provided all the bits.
He used something like
addFlatDirResolver('common', commonLib)
.addArtifactPattern(commonLib.path+'/[artifact].[ext]')
with compile dependencies in the form of ":[artifact]::[type]"
<http://markmail.org/message/otoahsvtmhnkucc2?q=unmanagedClasspath>
I'm not sure whether the resolver still requires one to add an artifact
description for each jar file in the deps directory. That would render
this approach useless for me. But maybe I'm just doing something wrong?
I want to replace the following
compile.unmanagedClasspath(findJars("$rootDir/deps")
with something like this
dependencies {
commonLib = new File("$rootDir/deps")
addFlatDirResolver('deps', commonLib)
.addArtifactPattern(commonLib.path+'/[artifact].[ext]')
compile ':[artifact]::[type]'
}
Is this possible? Thanks in advance of all your insight.
