Gradle for Ant users
====================

This shows some common ant targets and their equivalent Gradle commands.
Examples below assume cwd is at the top of the checkout (gradlew
script available from ./). Quoted [string] gives a better or more
conventional and commonly used task alternative.

Gradle tasks apply to all modules that contain a given task name. Use
"-p" switch with a directory or a colon-notation to specify a particular
task or module. For example these two are equivalent:

gradlew -p solr/core check
gradlew :solr:core:check

List of common dev task equivalents

ant compile         => gradlew classes      [better: gradlew assemble]
                       gradlew testClasses  [better: gradlew assemble]

ant validate        => gradlew check
ant test            => gradlew test

ant jar-checksums   => gradlew updateLicenses [May need to run: gradlew --write-locks if changing dependencies]
ant check-licenses  => gradlew licenses     [better: gradlew check -x test]
ant clean-jars      => (NO REPLACEMENT)

ant precommit       => gradlew precommit    [better: gradlew check -x test]
