Gradle Eclipse Building

Purpose of this repository is to give some potential solutions at converting a set of projects to Gradle. Converting plain Java projects to Gradle have been discussed a lot and is not the main focus here. Instead, we will focus on conversion of Eclipse related projects (plugin, feature, RCP application, update site).

Objectives of this tutorial are:

  • Gradle usage
  • Headless build of projects
  • Headless build of an update site
  • Development works within Eclipse IDE

Usage

This repository is built in a step by step way. Each step being represented in a specific branch. The master branch being the initial state of the tutorial. Each subsequent branch builds up a bit to the final state.

To follow, you can simply check the Tutorial section which describes the step and what documents to read.

Tutorial

Tutorial

  • Initial state (branch master)

    The initial state the project. Good background about project in general.

  • Gradlelized (branch gradlelized)

    Initial transformation of project not depending to use a Gradle build.

  • Single Vendors Project (branch single-vendor)

    An attempt at reducing vendors projects merging 6 projects together into a single one. Still no Eclipse Gradlelized build but good in-between steps to remove some unneeded projects.
