I'm trying to use gradle on some existing Groovy/Java projects that were
created using the Groovy Eclipse plugin. Since those projects don't
separate groovy and java classes in the src directory, I just mapped the
project like:
sourceSets {
main {
java {
srcDir 'src'
}
groovy {
srcDir 'src'
}
}
test {
java {
srcDir 'tests'
}
groovy {
srcDir 'tests'
}
}
}
I have both Java and Groovy classes in my src and tests directories. When I
run "gradle build", everything seems to work okay. Is that a reasonable
approach? It seems a lot easier than trying to rewrite the project
structure.
