gradle Eclipse plugin should allow simple method to set jst.web value

Details

  • Type: Bug Bug
  • Status: Open Open
  • Resolution: Unresolved
  • Affects Version/s: 0.9.2
  • Fix Version/s: None

Description

When building eclipse project files, gradle eclipse always defaults to setting jst.web to 2.4, which is YEARS old. There should be a simple way to set this.

A workaround is given here:

The provided workaround needs a little modification as of version 1.0-milestone-3.
Just change 'eclipseWtp' to 'eclipseWtpFacet', so that it should be:

eclipseWtpFacet.whenConfigured { config ->
    config.facets.each {
        if (it.name == 'jst.web') {
            it.version =
                configurations.providedCompile.getAllDependencies().find{
                    it.group == 'javax.servlet' && it.name == 'servlet-api'
                }.version
        }
    }
    config.facets.unique()
}

In gradle Milestone 6, whenConfigured is deprecated. Here's an updated solution:

eclipse {
    wtp {
        facet {
          file {
            whenMerged { config ->
                config.facets.each {
                    if (it.name == 'jst.web') {
                        it.version = 3.0 
                    }   
                }   
                config.facets.unique()
            }   
          }   
        }   
    }   
}
