I also don't think that is nice way of solving the problem but if it
works then I will be very grateful (I will have to try it on
monday). A similar problem appeaerd for me yesterday. Things like
this do make migration to gradle a bit easier even if later you
should sort the problem out and solve it better. In my case I just
found out that a number of resources (needed for production in
another system (yes they are in the resources dir at the mo)) should
not be included in the jars. However they do have to be distributed
(but seperately)
One problem of our archive handling is that we delegate to Ant. This
is rather limiting. On the other hand there is surprisingly no
production ready Java-API for compression tasks. Thus, to get away
from Ant, means quite a bit of work. We want to invest this time at
one point, as archive handling is very important. But right now there
are other issues we think are even more important.
Apache commons-compress seems also have come back to life, although it
is still in the sandbox. So that is another place to look at to
improve the Gradle archive handling.

Hi,
I would like to exclude a directory from the classes directory
produced by
"compile".
I can do this by defining a new jar task with a supplied
"appendix". But
what I really want to do is override or modify the default
"archive_jar"
zipFileSet.
The following did not work:
archive_jar.zipFileSet(dir: "build/classes") {
exclude("data/**")
}
is there a way to achieve this?
archive_jar.resourceCollections[0].exclude("data/")
This is not a particularly nice way of solving your problem, but it
should work. In general we have to strengthen our archive objects in
terms of modifying and querying existing settings.
