Upgrade build to Gradle 2.4 [SPR-12772] #17369
Comments
Sam Brannen commented Upgraded to Gradle 2.4 in GitHub commit ed60b8c. |
Juergen Hoeller commented It seems we lost our ability to build on JDK 9? I get a "Could not find tools.jar" out of the Gradle compiler abstraction when executing the build on JDK 9 now... Juergen |
Sam Brannen commented Hmmmmm.... yeah, you're right: it fails for me on JDK 9 as well. :( I'll look into it. |
Sam Brannen commented Reopening in order to investigate compatibility issues with JDK 9. |
Juergen Hoeller commented We may also decide that it's ok for our build to only work on JDK 8 for the time being... if Gradle 2.4 provides enough advantage to us. We also have AspectJ 1.9 beta 1 in our setup just for the ability to build on JDK 9. It's not unfeasible to give up on that for Spring 4.2, just aiming for JDK 9 builds in our 4.3 line. Juergen |
Sam Brannen commented OK, Juergen Hoeller, I am marking this issue as resolved again since developers do in fact experience 30% faster builds. Regarding support for JDK 9 with Gradle 2.4.x, I have raised an issue on the Gradle Forum. Regards, Sam |
Sam Brannen commented Please keep in mind that it is always possible to downgrade to Gradle 2.2.1 locally for intermittent testing against JDK 9. So we still have the option of testing against JDK 9 when we need to, but the default will be to build against JDK 8 and Gradle 2.4 |
Sam Brannen commented Update: Gradle 2.5 will officially support JDK 9. In fact, the Gradle 2.5 nightly build already supports building For details, see the comments from Adrian Kelly on the Gradle Forums. See also: #17603 |
