Info

If you come from a version which uses Ant for building and now want to use a newer version with Gradle here is the documentation you are looking for

Step-by-step guide

  1. Though it's part of the CleanAll Gradle task, you might be interested by the temporary cleanAnt task which cleans old artifacts generated by Ant. 
  2. If you used to run one of the download-* Ant targets (download-PG-JDBC, download-activemq, download-mySQL-JDBC) those have been removed.

    keyOFBIZ-7793
     if interested in more details
  3. If you use your own custom libs (jar) shared by several of your own components you might put these libs in the lib folder just under the OFBiz root folder.
    You will find a README there with more details. You might also read

    keyOFBIZ-7910
     for history reason.
  4. It's clearly documented in the README.MD and below, but you might be interested to know that the debug port is now the standard 5005 rather than previously the OFBiz specific 8091
  5. If you are interested by all the changes done in the context of the Ant to Gradle migration please check

    It's a WIP so there are still some minor issues pending (see sub-tasks there)
