Running any gradle task with Eclipse custom builder triggers Model build on main project about eclipse-integration-gradle HOT 8 CLOSED

The 'Building Gradle Model' execution wipes out the console output of the task Gradle task that I was interested in.

I don't think that it does, gradle tooling uses upto 9 consoles to dump output into for each time it runs builds or tasks. So although most likely the most recent console is the one that pops to the front you should be able to still get back to the previous one from the console view's pull down menu.

Does this work for you?

I don't see any Gradle Console sessions in the Console View -> Display Selected Console Dropdown.

Other than the one from the Building Gradle Model that is

That is odd. Here's a screenshot what it should look like after two model builds and one task execution. Maybe something peculiar about how you are doing things make this break. How exactly are you getting this task executed? Provide detailed instructions and I'll try to reproduce it.

OK, I think I have it where it's fairly simple but repeatable:

0. I set up a brand new Gradle Project -> flat-java-multiproject

1. In the product sub-project create a new File called Builder.xml with this content:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project name="Builder" default="target1" basedir="."> <target name="clean"> </target> <target name="target1" depends="clean" description="build stuff"> </target> </project>

2. Rt Click product project -> properties -> Builders -> New -> Ant Builder
   a) Set Builderfile: ${workspace_loc:/product/Builder.xml}
   b) Set Base Directory: ${workspace_loc:/product}
   c) OK, OK (to save builder)

3. Double Click Gradle Task View -> build
   *Works as expected

4. Rt Click product project -> properties -> Builders -> New_Builder -> Edit...
   a) On Targets Tab -> Set Auto Build: <default target selected>
   b) OK, OK (to save builder)

5. Double Click Gradle Task View -> build
   ! You can see the build output scroll by, then the Builder executes, Console View no longer contains output from build task

This is not necessary to see the issue, but this is how our production builder is set up:
6) Rt Click product project -> properties -> Builders -> New_Builder -> Edit...
a) On Build Options Tab -> Uncheck Allocate Console
b) OK, OK (to save builder)

7. Double Click Gradle Task View -> build
   ! You can see the build output scroll by, then the Builder executes, Console View no longer contains output from build task

Okay I am able to reproduce it. I see now what is happening. But I'm not sure there is much I can do about this. The problem seems to be that the ant-builder is replacing the current console with its own output. There's not much that I can really do about that since its not the Gradle tooling doing this.

I can even reproduce this by just doing "run as Ant Build" on the builder.xml file. This replaces the contents of the latest / current console with ants output.

I'll think about it some more, but I can't really see a solution. Maybe this is really a problem that should be fixed in the ant builder.

Closed this. Unless you have a good idea how I can stop ant tools from 'clobbering' our output, there's not much I can do.

No, thanks for looking.
