[jira] [Commented] (OFBIZ-10145) Remove the Gradle wrapper from our release packages and add a step to our build notes

["Jacques Le Roux (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-10145?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16853947#comment-16853947 ] 

Jacques Le Roux commented on OFBIZ-10145:
-----------------------------------------

I had another even simpler idea. Why bother Infra? We can simply copy the OFBiz/gradle/wrapper directory in tools/buildbot/gradle/wrapper and in Buildbot copy it back to its place, et voilà.

I have closed  INFRA-18530 with more information there, actually copying it here:

bq. I forgot that we have Gradle installed in /usr/lib/gradle/ on "lares_ubuntu" , "orcus_ubuntu" , "silvanus_ubuntu"  as says INFRA-13202. Actually It's about Gradle to 3.2.1, I guess it's the same for Gradle 5.0.

I'll work on https://svn.apache.org/repos/infra/infrastructure/buildbot/aegis/buildmaster/master1/projects/ofbiz.conf soon...

> Following the discussion at http://markmail.org/message/nd7grfiyobjkfwae, considering LEGAL-288 and based on a lazy consensus on dev ML, we want to remove the gradle-wrapper.jar file from the next packaged releases and  use [~jacopoc]'s related proposition to document how to have Gradle working in the main README.md file.
> # Extract the archive file to your local directory.
> # Download gradle-wrapper.jar and place it in the OFBiz-root-dir/gradle/wrapper folder.
> I'm not sure if we should recommend a link to download the gradle-wrapper.jar. This might change in the future (versions, etc.), so indeed maybe simply asking to download is enough, cf  https://www.google.com/search?q=gradle-wrapper.jar+download&ie=UTF-8
> Also we need to add a point about removing gradle-wrapper.jar in https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Release+Management+Guide+for+OFBiz
