srcdir attributes must be set - gradle

Im trying to migrate my code from ant to gradle and imported my build.xml in build.gradle and some of my tasks work fine.
However there are some tasks when i run them it says
Execution failed for task ':compile'.
srcdir attribute must be set!
Pasting a snippet of my Build.xml and the compile task below is failing.
<project basedir="." default="deploy" name="FitNesse">
<property name="fitnesse.target" value="/build/test-fitnesse"/>
<patternset id="test.patternset">
<include name="**/*Test*.java"/>
</patternset>
<propertyset id="test.propertyset">
<propertyref name="basedir"/>
<propertyref name="test.patternset"/>
</propertyset>
<fileset id="classpath.fitnesse" dir="./libs">

<include name="asm-4.1.jar"/>

><target name="compile" description="Compile java sources" depends="clean">

</target>
Source folder structure
/src/main/java/com/xebia/inc/xeb
I had changed my src folder structure from ant "src" to a gradle project "/src/main/java/com/xebia/incubator/xebium". and lib folder to libs
Please help. I'm kind of novice to this.
Thanks,

The full error message should give you the line number and it's most probably the line that contains
<javac includeantruntime="false"/>
which looks like a copy-paste error.

Maven regular expression to match file is not working

I have two files test-200-12-30-2990 and test-project-200-12-30-2990 I am unziping it to corresponding folders. Second task is not working. I want to select the file 'test-200-12-30-2990'
Below is the ant build.xml. I am using maven ant plugin inside pom
<mkdir dir="/testdir"/>
<unzip dest="src/main/resources/testdir">
<fileset dir="src/main/resources">
<include name="**/test-project*.zip"/>
</fileset>
</unzip>
</target>
<mkdir dir="/test-projectdir"/>
<unzip dest="src/main/resources/test-projectdir">
<fileset dir="src/main/resources">
<include name="**/test[1-9].zip"/>
</fileset>
</unzip>
</target>
I'm not quite sure how inclusion might work in Maven, but maybe we could solve this problem with a simple expression that you already have, something maybe similar to:
test-[0-9-]+
Then, the include might look like:
test-[0-9-]+\.zip
**/test-[0-9-]+\.zip
If escaping . might be unnecessary, then we can just use:
**/test-[0-9-]+.zip

Weblogic WsdlcTask for gradle

I am looking for the weblogic.wsee.tools.anttasks.WsdlcTask for gradle. All I could find so far was an example for Ant.
Importing the ant script with ant.importBuild "wsdlc_build.xml" works perfectly fine in my gradle build script, but I would prefer writing the task in gradle. Has someone already found a solution for this?
My ant script:
<project name="WebServices" basedir=".">
<property name="build.wls.home" value="C:\User\wls\"/>
<path id="weblogic.tools.path">
<fileset dir="${build.wls.home}/wlserver/server/lib">
<include name="weblogic.jar" />
</fileset>
</path>
<taskdef name="wsdlc" classname="weblogic.wsee.tools.anttasks.WsdlcTask" classpathref="weblogic.tools.path"/>
<target name="build_opera">
<wsdlc failOnError="true"
srcWsdl="WebContent/WEB-INF/wsdls/OperaService.wsdl"
destImplDir="src"
destJwsDir="WebContent/WEB-INF/lib"
packageName="server.opera.webservice.service"
verbose="on" debug="on"
type="JAXWS">
</wsdlc>
</target>
<target name="build_nez">
<wsdlc
failOnError="true"
srcWsdl="WebContent/WEB-INF/wsdls/NezService.wsdl"
destImplDir="src"
destJwsDir="WebContent/WEB-INF/lib"
packageName="server.nez.webservice.service"

How to convert an ant snippet to Gradle

Hi I am completely new to Gradle. Can anyone please help me as to how I can convert this ant task into Gradle. I am trying to see if I can learn by example.
<property file="build.properties"/>
<path id="classpath">
<fileset dir="${ear.dir}/EarContent/APP-INF">
<include name="**/*.jar" />
</fileset>
</path>
<target name="clean">
<delete file="${dist.dir}/*.jar" failonerror="false"/>
<delete failonerror="false">
<fileset dir="${build.dir}">
<include name="**/*.class" />
</fileset>
</delete>
</target>
<target name="init">
<mkdir dir="${dist.dir}"/>
<mkdir dir="${build.dir}/classes"/>
</target>
<target name="jar" depends="clean, init">
<javac srcdir="${src.dir}" destdir="${build.dir}/classes" debug="on">
<classpath refid="classpath"/>
</javac>
<jar destfile="${dist.dir}/phIntegration.jar">
<fileset dir="${build.dir}/classes" />
</jar>
</target>
I'm not convinced that trying move ANT build 1-1 to Gradle is a good learning exercise, although Gradle provides good integration with ANT.
Generally speaking, the build.gradle file for your project shall like somewhat like that:
apply plugin: 'java'
dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir: 'CLASSPATH_DIR', include: ['**/*.jar'])
//if you want you can use JARS from your filesystem as a classpath
//but you probably should use Ivy or Maven dependency management systems
}
sourceSets {
main {
java 'src/main/java'
//tweak the location of your source code, by default Gradle looks for sources in `src/main/java`
}
}
Once you invoke gradle clean build it will compile your sources and create a jar file containing the sources in build/libs directory. You can change the JARS name by adding the rootProject.name='your project name' in the settings.gradle directory.
The snippet uses Java plugin and the default behaviour of Gradle. If you want you can tweak its behaviour by using Delete Task or Jar Task.
If you define properly inputs/outputs of a task the init task won't be necessary since Gradle will take care of directories recreation if they're not existent. (Default tasks do that, if you start writing your own tasks you most probably will have to take care of that by your own)

Using jarbundler ant task to add dependencies to the app

I have a Netbeans Java project. When I build my project it create a directory dist and dist/lib. It stores the Jar of the file in dist and other jar files on which the main jar file depends, in the lib directory.
Now I want to create a release for OSX. For that I am using the jarbundler ant task like this
<target name="mac">
<mkdir dir="release"/>
<taskdef name="jarbundler"
classname="net.sourceforge.jarbundler.JarBundler" />
<jarbundler dir="release"
name="MyApp"
mainClass="controller.MyApp"
jar="dist/MyApp.jar" />
</target>
This creates the app with the jar, but how do I add the dependent libraries to the app.
This is what is needed
The jar attribute should be replaced with jarfileset like this.
<target name="mac">
<mkdir dir="release"/>
<taskdef name="jarbundler"
classname="net.sourceforge.jarbundler.JarBundler" />
<jarbundler dir="release"
name="MyApp"
mainClass="controller.MyApp">
<jarfileset dir="dist">
<include name="**/*.jar" />
</jarfileset>
</jarbundler>
</target>

Apache Ant JAR Task: not finding properties

How exactly should I specify the location of all the properties files inside the ant manifest?
My jar is not working because it can't find the log4j, Spring, etc properties.
These files are all contained within a folder called "server-config" that sits at the same level as the source code, ie:
META-INF
com
server-config
Essentially, I want to know what I need to add to the Class-Path property for the jar to be aware of all these properties files inside the server-config folder.
Here's my current task:
<jar destfile="${root.home}/onejar/build/main/main.jar" basedir="${build.home}">
<manifest>
<attribute name="Class-Path" value=".;server-config" />
</manifest>
<include name="com/mycompany/client/*"/>
<include name="com/mycompany/portable/util/*"/>
<include name="com/mycompany/request/*"/>
<include name="com/mycompany/model/*"/>
<include name="com/mycompany/controller/*"/>
<include name="com/mycompany/helpers/*"/>
<include name="server-config/*"/>
</jar>
I've tried a few things and none of them are working, I keep on getting errors due to the file not being found.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
You can remove the entire <manifest... part - that's not what the Class-Path manifest attribute does. It's for things external to the JAR.
The line <include name="server-config/*"/> should work - if the server-config directory exists inside your ${build.home} directory. You probably need a task to copy them there - you mention that the source code sits at the same level, but you don't mention where they are compiled to.
An example -
<mkdir dir="${build.dir}/server-config"
<copy todir="${build.dir}/server-config">
<fileset dir="${src.dir}/server-config">
<include name="*"/>
</fileset>
</copy>
