Hey Andrus,
I just logged into the jira. We have had a discussion in our java user group
monthly meeting this Saturday. I never worked with Gradle myself, but there are
a few who did in JUG. I will look at other tasks in the list you have given,
and let u know. Or, may be I will learn and take help of some of the people in
JUG to take up the ones you listed below.
Thanks
Buddha

As you see it is taking us a bit of time to get the JavaFX Modeler project
setup. Though we are getting there. If you feel like digging inside other parts
of Cayenne in the meantime, I posted a broad TODO list for the next release
recently [1]. Perhaps you can give us a hand on some of those tasks?
A good candidate (if you work with Gradle at all) may be #10 - providing
Gradle versions of Cayenne tools:
* cgen - template-based class generator.
* cdbimport - DB to ORM synchronization tool.
* cdbgen - ORM to DB generator tool.
These tools work from the Modeler, and are also integrated into Ant and
Maven [2]. The Gradle option currently is to call the Ant tasks. We'd like to
provide "Gradle-native" plugins instead. There are a few options for writing
those. We lean towards using Java (to isolate us from the whole Groovy vs.
Kotlin thing going on in the Gradle world).
Other tasks from my list [1] are #6 and #7. They are isolated and mostly
well-defined, though will require a bit more discussion and delving into
Cayenne runtime stack.
So what do you think?
Andrus
