This project is now defunct. See https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-framework/wiki/Gradle-build-and-release-FAQ for our current approach to publishing artifacts for Spring projects.

What is the shared Gradle sources project?

The project repository is structured as a Gradle [[buildSrc|http://www.gradle.org/0.9-rc-3/docs/userguide/userguide_single.html#sec:build_sources]] directory, to be shared as a git submodule. The sources within contain tasks and plugins that address the project automation needs common to most Spring projects. Participating Spring projects maintain a root build.gradle script that makes use of some or all of these tasks and plugins.

It is also a documentation effort. The goal is to clearly explain all infrastructure, practices and processes involved in creating, maintaining and releasing Spring open source projects. This includes topics not strictly Gradle-related; for example Spring project versioning information.

Please note that this is not a general-purpose build for projects that make use of Spring. It is a common set of build sources for open-source Spring projects built with Gradle. The audience for this wiki is anyone that builds or maintains those projects.
