Hi.
I am a heavy Maven 2 user but lately I have been really tired of it.
Been looking at both gradle and buildr for some time now. Tried both
gradle and buildr in some real world settings. Right now I am
favouring buildr since it gives me a good feeling to have control
over my build.
I'm curious what you feel you don't have control over with Gradle.
Do you have some examples? I'm pretty confident that whatever Buildr
offers you in this respect, Gradle offers equivalent options.
I have looked at gradle some more now and feel that I have more
control. The only think I wish for (before considering moving from
Maven) is the following.
* Osgi plugin that does the same as Felix Maven Plugin. It seems
to me that the current osgi plugin is just manipulating the
manifest. Are there
any plans?
What exactly do you want to achieve?
You might have a look at the Osgi blog entries in
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GRADLE/External+Resources
* A good gwt plugin - gwt compile/run. This is simple enough since
it has a ant task.
* Better speed. Seems that version 0.8 is slow. Do not know why
though.
What exactly is slow?
Startup time?
Average Build time?
