If you're coming from an Ant background, you're not used to having the
full power of a dynamic language in your build script. I'd highly
recommend taking the time to learn a little Groovy, which will make
your whole Gradle experience a little more, err, groovy.
One benefit of having groovy available is that it's trivial for you to
implement things like "includesfile", so we don't have to bloat Gradle
to handle every possible contingency.
Try something like:
sourceSets {
main {
java {
file('includes.txt').eachLine { line ->
include line
}
file('excludes.txt').eachLine { line ->
exclude line
}
}
}
}
