What is it?

A Gradle plugin that configures the Java and Groovy plugins to use the Groovy Eclipse compiler instead of the default javac and groovyc compilers.

Why would I want use it?

stubless joint groovy/java compilation

Building the plugin

You'll need to use Gradle 0.9-rc-2 or later. It does not work with earlier Gradle releases.

Run gradle install to build the plugin and install it into the local maven repository.

Using the plugin

The plugin works with Gradle 0.9-rc-2 or later. To use it, you need to:

1. load the plugin from the local maven repository using a buildscript { } section
2. apply the groovy-eclipse plugin.
3. apply any of the java, java-base, groovy or groovy-base plugins. The plugin does not do anything on its own.

Here's an example:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenRepo(urls: uri("${System.getProperty('user.home')}/.m2/repository"))
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'org.gradle:groovy-eclipse:0.1-SNAPSHOT'
    }
}

apply plugin: 'groovy' // or apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'groovy-eclipse'

What doesn't work?

• There are some issues with AST transformations.
• Some compile options are not wired up yet.
