Hi all, we are considering to migrate our current build to Gradle.
We have hundreds of eclipse projects which are build with ant and ant4eclipse and our current Build does always a full build of all projects. The system is nonsatisfying and defective, but for a developer it is easy as they are not concerned with the build process (all they have to do is put their project in the .psf and enter the usual Eclipse dependencies). To switch to gradle we would need also such an easy handling for the developer. So basically my questions about gradle: - Is it possible to have a "template" build.gradle, so that not every project needs to define its own, identical to other build files. This is not like the "multi-project build", every project should be build individually, but I dont want to have redundant build files ? - How is the integration of Gradle with eclipse ? Is it somehow possible for the developer to have a plugin with which one can enter / delete dependencies and that is then transformed into gradle syntax. Basically I want to free the developer to know about Gradle at all. E.g. Defining the dependencies in a properties file which is then read by the build process or any other way... These are essentiell points for considering switching to Gradle, which I would love to do... so I hope someone can solve this concerns. Thanks - I hope my intensions were clear Marty -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Migration-current-build-to-Gradle-tp27238061p27238061.html Sent from the gradle-user mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email
