Has anyone had any luck with Gradle build file generation? I'm creating a plugin to help jEdit plugin developers get started. The plugin thus far will allow users to run 'gradle init' in their directory, and it'll create the base directory structure. I'd like to be able to safely add things to the build file after commands are run. For example, in the 'init' task I'd like to ask the user if their plugin is intended for jEdit 4.3, jEdit 4.4, or jEdit 4.5. Based on their choice, I'd want to add the appropriate dependency to the build.gradle file.
I suppose this is one benefit to being able to use XML, java processes can manipulate the XML structure pretty easily without worrying about closing braces in the wrong places. I saw this ticket: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GRADLE-197 Is it a best bet to wait for something to come out of it, or is there a work-a-round I can use for this? Thanks for any help.
