This example project demonstrates building an Eclipse RCP application using the following techniques:

• Dependencies pulled from maven and p2
• Native launchers for Win/Mac/Linux
• Automatic OSGi metadata
• Two versions of the same library (Guava 17 and 18 at the same time)
• Generate IDE-as-build-artifact

Demo project for the goomph Gradle plugin, also makes heavy use of bnd-platform.

• gradlew ide opens an IDE for manipulating this project.
• gradlew assemble.all creates native launchers for win/mac/linux in the deploy/build folder.

The plugins are applied as follows:

See "Gradle and Eclipse RCP.pptx" in this repo for more details. Based on a talk given at Gradle Summit 2016 (video).

A second talk based on this work will be given at EclipseConverge 2017.

• Many thanks to Simon Templer for the excellent bnd-platform.
• Be on the lookout for David Akehurst's work on p2 and Gradle (details in powerpoint).
• Andrey Hihlovskiy's excellent Wuff and Unpuzzle libraries have been a huge boon to everyone trying to get Gradle and Eclipse to collaborate.
• Maintained by DiffPlug.
