 Description   

According to the docs http://www.gradle.org/0.9.2/docs/dsl/org.gradle.plugins.eclipse.EclipseClasspath.html the default output directory is project.sourceSets.main.classesDir.

<excerpt>
File defaultOutputDir
The default output directory for eclipse generated files, eg classes.

Default with eclipse and java plugins:
project.sourceSets.main.classesDir
</excerpt>

However, in the source code, in EclipsePlugin.groovy line 102,
conventionMapping.defaultOutputDir =

{ new File(project.projectDir, 'bin') }

is set.

A test according to the docs is appended in the zip file. just run gradle testClasspath to invoke the task which asserts the generated output path within the .classpath file.

This is intentional (see GRADLE-1305). Will have to check why the DSL guide isn't up-to-date.

DSL docs for the EclipseClasspath task have been fixed.
