Dear developers: Does anyone use gradle in Eclipse (Buildship plug-in) with the OpenJFX repo?
The reason I am asking is that in my experience, the gradle nature in OpenJFX is either misconfigured, or obsolete, or both. There is a rather old wiki page [0] which describes the Eclipse setup, though I don't think it is correct anymore. The initial import of the repository in Eclipse triggers an internal gradle run which creates/modifies a bunch of .classpath and .project files which must be undone before the workspace becomes usable. In any case, only a proper command line gradle build is supported anyway. I would like to propose removing the gradle nature from Eclipse's .project files in OpenJFX. Once done, the projects can be trivially imported into a new workspace with no extra steps required. This change has no impact on command line build whatsoever. What do you think? Thank you -andy References [1] https://wiki.openjdk.org/display/OpenJFX/Using+an+IDE#UsinganIDE-ConfigureEclipsetousethelatestJDK
