I need to generate FlatBuffers files from *.fbs file before the build.
So i'm using gradle.plugin.io.netifi:gradle-flatbuffers-plugin:1.0.7 to do it for me.
It works as expected for 1 task:
def generatedSourcePathJava = "$buildDir/generated/source/flatbuffers/java"
def generatedSourcePathCpp = "$buildDir/generated/source/flatbuffers/cpp"
...
task createFlatBuffersJava(type: io.netifi.flatbuffers.plugin.tasks.FlatBuffers) {
outputDir = file(generatedSourcePathJava)
language = "kotlin"
}
build.dependsOn createFlatBuffersJava
But if i add the 2nd one (to generate C++ files for JNI):
task createFlatBuffersJava(type: io.netifi.flatbuffers.plugin.tasks.FlatBuffers) {
outputDir = file(generatedSourcePathJava)
language = "kotlin"
}
task createFlatBuffersCpp(type: io.netifi.flatbuffers.plugin.tasks.FlatBuffers) {
outputDir = file(generatedSourcePathCpp)
language = "cpp"
}
assemble.dependsOn createFlatBuffersJava, createFlatBuffersCpp
Gradle build (../gradlew :engine-flatbuffers:clean :engine-flatbuffers:build) fails with the following:
What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring project ':engine-flatbuffers'.
java.util.ConcurrentModificationException (no error message)
I think the question can be generalized to "How to add multiple tasks of the same type in Gradle?".
PS. "gradle-5.6-all"
That's a known plugin bug/feature reported at https://github.com/gregwhitaker/gradle-flatbuffers-plugin/issues/7.
It works in 1.0.5 but kotlin [argument] is sadly not supported there at that point. java works and it's compatible.

I'm trying to find the best way to pass a gradle task arguments from the command line.
I have this task. I want to unpack solutions from student exercises and copy them into the right place in the project to evaulate them. I call this task like this:
> gradle swapSolution -Pstudent=MyStudent -Pexercise=ex05
One Problem i have with this while doing this in IntelliJ while having the Gradle plugin enabled is that i get this error message when build the project. What could be a solution to this?
A problem occurred evaluating root project 'kprog-2020-ws'.
> Could not get unknown property 'student' for root project 'kprog-2020-ws' of type org.gradle.api.Project.
This is the gradle task:
task swapSolution(type: Copy) {
new File("${rootDir}/Abgaben").eachDir { file ->
if (file.name.toString().matches("(.*)" + project.property("student") + "(.*)")) {
def exDir = new File("/src/main/java/prog/" + project.property("exercise"))
if (!exDir.exists()) {
delete exDir
}
new File(file.path).eachFile { zipSolution ->
//def zipFile = new File("./Abgaben/" + file.name.toString() + "/" + project.property("exercise") + "Solution.zip")
from zipTree(zipSolution)
into "/src/main/java/"
}
}
}
}
Do you have any suggestions to optimize this process?
-P denotes the Gradle Project Property. If you need to use project properties you can specify it as a system property in gradle.properties file in project root directory.
If your task is of type JavaExec you can use --args switch and pass it in Arguments text field of the Gradle Task Run Configuration togenther with the task name like swapSolution -args="-student=MyStudent -exercise=ex05". See also

In my project I have to generate the grammar sources for more than one language (Java, Javascript and Python) using gradle.
I'm using the antlr plugin, so I have the following rows in my build.gradle file:
apply plugin: 'antlr'
generateGrammarSource {
def languageFlag = project.hasProperty('Language') ?project.property('Language') : 'Python2'
arguments = ['-Dlanguage=' + languageFlag]
def pythonOutputDirectory = "python/engine_lib/kpi_attributes"
switch (languageFlag) {
case "Java":
outputDirectory = file("../../../../XSpotterGUI/sviluppo/src/com/xech/xspotter4/grammars/kpiattributes")
arguments += ['-package', 'com.xech.xspotter4.grammars.kpiattributes']
break
case "JavaScript":
outputDirectory = file("../../../../XSpotterGUI/sviluppo/WebContent/xspotter4/js/xech/grammars/kpiattributes")
break
case "Python2":
outputDirectory = file(pythonOutputDirectory)
break
}
description = 'Generates Java sources from Antlr4 grammars.'
maxHeapSize = "64m"
sourceSets.main.antlr.srcDirs = ['.']
includes = ['KpiAttributes.g4']
doLast {
if (languageFlag.equals("Python2")) {
File file = new File("$pythonOutputDirectory/__init__.py")
file.write ""
}
}
}
I omitted the rows regarding repositories, dependencies and so on.
In this way I'm able to call gradle three times:
./gradlew generateGrammarSource -PLanguage=Java
./gradlew generateGrammarSource -PLanguage=Python2
./gradlew generateGrammarSource -PLanguage=JavaScript
But I have not been able to create a task 'generateAllGrammarSources' in order to call gradlew only ONE time and generate all sources
I have a custom Gradle plugin that will generate Java files from a template file. I have several such template files in different locations, and I need to "compile" all of them to generate the Java files I need. Once I have the files, I want to package them into a .jar.
One way I thought I could do this was to call the "compile template" task multiple times from within the same build file. I'd call it once in a task that compiles template files in location A, again from a task that compiles template files from location B... etc., until I have all the Java files I need.
Something like this:
task compileFromLocationA <<{
compileTemplate.execute(A)...
}
task compileFromLocationB
compileTemplate.execute(B)...
...
packageJar(depends: compileFromLocationA, compileFromLocationB, ...)
...
However, you can't programmatically call a task from within another task. I suppose I could break each compileFromLocation_ task into it's own build.gradle file, but that seems like overkill. What's the "best practice" in a case like this?
This code seems to work in build.gradle by using tasks.register() - e.g. to perform multiple source code generating steps - in my case I needed to load different pairs of files (XML schema and generation options) in two different steps:
plugins {
id 'java'
id "com.plugin" version "1.0"
}
sourceSets.main.java.srcDirs += file("${buildDir}/genSrc")
sourceSets.test.java.srcDirs += file("${buildDir}/testGenSrc")
tasks.compileJava {
dependsOn tasks.named("genMessage")
}
genMessage {
codesFile = "${projectDir}/src/main/resources/file.xml"
}
def testGenModel1 = tasks.register("testGenModel1", com.plugin.TestGenModelTask.class) {
schema = "${projectDir}/src/test/resources/file.xsd"
options = "${projectDir}/src/test/resources/file.xml"
}
def testGenModel2 = tasks.register("testGenModel2", com.plugin.TestGenModelTask.class) {
schema = "${projectDir}/src/test/resources/file2.xsd"
options = "${projectDir}/src/test/resources/file2.xml"
}
tasks.compileTestJava {
dependsOn tasks.named("testGenModel1"), tasks.named("testGenModel2")
}
I'm trying to configure the following custom task:
task antecedeRelease(type: AntecedeReleaseTask) {
antecedeWithVersion = project.'antecede-with-version'
antecedeToVersion = project.'antecede-to-version'
}
The problem is that the properties antecede-with-version and antecede-to-version are to be set through the command line with a -P option. If they're not set and antecedeRelease isn't being called, that shouldn't be a cause for an error:
$ ./gradlew tasks
org.gradle.api.GradleScriptException: A problem occurred evaluating project ...
Caused by: groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: Could not find property 'antecede-with-version' on project ...
I could conditionally define the antecedeRelease task such that it's defined only if those properties are defined but I'd like to keep the build.gradle file as clean as possible.
If you need the antecedeRelease task to run "lazily" as-in, at the end of the configuration phase, or at the beginning of the execution phase, your best bet is to use doFirst
task antecedeRelease(type: AntecedeReleaseTask) {
doFirst {
antecedeWithVersion = project.'antecede-with-version'
antecedeToVersion = project.'antecede-to-version'
}
}
One option might be to use Groovy's elvis operator like so:
task antecedeRelease(type: AntecedeReleaseTask) {
antecedeWithVersion = project.ext.get('antecede-with-version') ?: 'unused'
antecedeToVersion = project.ext.get('antecede-with-version') ?: 'unused'
}
If this fails still, you can consider project.ext.has('property') when setting the value.
I have a gradle build script with a handful of source sets that all have various dependencies defined (some common, some not), and I'm trying to use the Eclipse plugin to let Gradle generate .project and .classpath files for Eclipse, but I can't figure out how to get all the dependency entries into .classpath; for some reason, quite few of the external dependencies are actually added to .classpath, and as a result the Eclipse build fails with 1400 errors (building with gradle works fine).
I've defined my source sets like so:
sourceSets {
setOne
setTwo {
compileClasspath += setOne.runtimeClasspath
}
test {
compileClasspath += setOne.runtimeClasspath
compileClasspath += setTwo.runtimeClasspath
}
}
dependencies {
setOne 'external:dependency:1.0'
setTwo 'other:dependency:2.0'
}
Since I'm not using the main source-set, I thought this might have something to do with it, so I added
sourceSets.each { ss ->
sourceSets.main {
compileClasspath += ss.runtimeClasspath
}
}
but that didn't help.
I haven't been able to figure out any common properties of the libraries that are included, or of those that are not, but I can't find anything that I'm sure of (although of course there has to be something). I have a feeling that all included libraries are dependencies of the test source-set, either directly or indirectly, but I haven't been able to verify that more than noting that all of test's dependencies are there.
How do I ensure that the dependencies of all source-sets are put in .classpath?
This was solved in a way that was closely related to a similar question I asked yesterday:
// Create a list of all the configuration names for my source sets
def ssConfigNames = sourceSets.findAll { ss -> ss.name != "main" }.collect { ss -> "${ss.name}Compile".toString() }
// Find configurations matching those of my source sets
configurations.findAll { conf -> "${conf.name}".toString() in ssConfigNames }.each { conf ->
// Add matching configurations to Eclipse classpath
eclipse.classpath {
plusConfigurations += conf
}
}
Update:
I also asked the same question in the Gradle forums, and got an even better solution:
eclipseClasspath.plusConfigurations = configurations.findAll { it.name.endsWith("Runtime") }
It is not as precise, in that it adds other stuff than just the things from my source sets, but it guarantees that it will work. And it's much easier on the eyes =)
I agree with Tomas Lycken, it is better to use second option, but might need small correction:
eclipse.classpath.plusConfigurations = configurations.findAll { it.name.endsWith("Runtime") }
This is what worked for me with Gradle 2.2.1:
eclipse.classpath.plusConfigurations = [configurations.compile]
