 Description   

Since 0.5, Gradle by default forks groovyc. However, if compilation fails, the only output is "forked groovyc returned error code: 1". Instead, the groovyc output should be shown.

I can't reproduce this problem. I did the following to set up a test for this. I went to the GRADLE_HOME/samples/groovyproject. I have introduced an illegal syntax int the file: testproject/src/main/groovy/org/gradle/GroovyPerson.groovy. Then I have triggered a compile and got the following output:

:testproject:compile
org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed, /Users/hans/java/gradle-SNAPSHOT/samples/groovyproject/testproject/src/main/groovy/org/gradle/GroovyPerson.groovy: 22: unexpected token: a @ line 22, column 5.
       a
       ^
1 error

Build failed with an exception.
Run with -s or -d option to get more details. Run with -f option to get the full (very verbose) stacktrace.

Build file '/Users/hans/java/gradle-SNAPSHOT/samples/groovyproject/testproject/build.gradle'

Execution failed for task :testproject:compile.
Cause: Forked groovyc returned error code: 1

I get a similar output from the joint compile for an illegal syntax in a Java class.

Could you try to run gradle with the -i option. Do you get more output then?

Hi Peter,

can you reproduce this problem with Gradle 0.7?

Comment by Peter Niederwieser [ 31/Aug/09 ]

No, seems to work now.

Comment by Hans Dockter [ 31/Aug/09 ]

Cool. Thanks for the feedback.

This has been already fixed with 0.7.
