Specifically set the source level in generated eclipse projects to 1.7
rather than 1.8. Allows the current eclipse milestone (4.3 M6) in
combination with JDK 8.0 to be used for Spring 4.0 development.
- Change output folders to /bin/main and /bin/test. This prevents
'gradle clean' from breaking eclipse.
- Update copyright header for new files to '2002-2013'
Update gradle to generate the following project specific eclipse
settings:
- Java formatting
- Cleanup options
- Warning settings
- Code template with copyright header
- WTP module meta-data
In addition this commit changes the eclipse project .classpath file
to output test and main classes to different folders. This is required
to prevent eclipse WTP from packaging test classes into /WEB-INF/lib
jar files.
Issue: SPR-9518
Replace existing 'optional' and 'provided' Spring specific build
extensions with a new Gradle propdeps-plugin. Optional and Provided
dependencies are now defined use dependency configurations.
The new plugin does not currently support the notion of optional
runtime dependencies. All optional dependencies are implicitly
part of the 'compile' scope. This is an intentional design decision
that aims to keep both the plugin and the build simple. Since optional
dependencies are non-transitive this restriction should not cause
any real problems for existing users. The only existing dependency
affected is 'commons-io' in the 'spring-beans' project, however, this
was an optional compile scope dependency in the previous Spring 3.1
release.
Both provided and optional dependencies are no longer exported from
generated eclipse .classpath files. This fixes several tests that
would previously fail when running within eclipse. The servlet-api
specific elements of ide.gradle are also no longer required.
Issue: SPR-9656, SPR-10070
Previously the workaround for GRADLE-1116 only worked for the
merge-dist.gradle projects
Now the workaround is more generic and fixes errors that have since
been introduced when performing a fresh import into Eclipse.
