To some degree. The Project.container() method, add in 0.9.2, is intended to
help you solve this problem, but currently you still need to write a bit of
code in your plugin. Have a look at this example in the user guide:
http://gradle.org/0.9.2/docs/userguide/custom_plugins.html#N14570
The container() implementation doesn't allow map-based configuration at the
moment, so your build script would look more like this:
locations {
location1 {
url = ...
}
location2 {
url = ...
}
}
