Just my personal preference the different output folders have not been annoying to me. I know that the eclipse compile output is different from the output generated running gradle on the CLI and am happy with that. -------------------------------------------------- Edoardo Comar IBM MessageHub eco...@uk.ibm.com IBM UK Ltd, Hursley Park, SO21 2JN

I agree this is not a Kafka issue, its about gradle and its eclipse plugin. I was able to resolve the compile errors in Eclipse by manually setting the Default output folder for core project to core/build/classes/main. I understand Eclipse is not the popular choice for an IDE but, for me and my other Eclipse brethren, I looked into the problems I faced and noticed that the output folders for gradle and those for eclipse get configured differently. The output folders in eclipse go under <project>/bin where as in gradle they are under <project>/build. Due to this the projects in Eclipse don't work fine unless the command line build is completed at least once. Will it be fine if we could align these so that inter project dependencies fall well in place in either build? *I was looking into the possibilities of fixing that and I have a change available that I am testing out.* There is another discussion on the pros and cons of this here https://discuss.gradle.org/t/eclipse-generated-files-should-be-put-in-the-same-place-as-the-gradle-generated-files/6986 People, please let me know your opinion and I will provide a PR for this if I get this working for myself. thanks -dhwani On 01/07/2017 07:02 PM, Ismael Juma wrote: > Hi Dhwani, > > This is more about Gradle and Eclipse than Kafka and many of us use > IntelliJ IDEA so won't be able to help you.
