I started playing with gradle and spring downloads and selected some nice “simple tutorials” listed below. My setup is also listed below.
Although the tutorial states that Java 1.8 is required, I read that gradle and loading can also be used in Java 1.7.
So, any reason why this simple tutorial should not work for Java 1.7? Apparently ...
I create my gradlew as follows: gradle wrapper --gradle-version 3.0and then run the gradle build command as ususal: ./gradlew build && java -jar build/libs/gs-spring-boot-0.1.0.jarin my project directory.
Setup:
OS: 12.04 LTS 32-bit
java version "1.7.0_80"
textbooks:
build.gradle( : target/sourceCompatibility = 1.7):
buildscript {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
classpath("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-gradle-plugin:1.4.0.RELEASE")
}
}
apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'eclipse'
apply plugin: 'idea'
apply plugin: 'spring-boot'
jar {
baseName = 'gs-spring-boot'
version = '0.1.0'
}
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
sourceCompatibility = 1.7
targetCompatibility = 1.7
dependencies {
compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web") {
exclude module: "spring-boot-starter-tomcat"
}
compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-jetty")
compile("org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-actuator")
testCompile("junit:junit")
}
