Issue
We're looking at converting our Ant build to Gradle.
In regards to integration with Eclipse, we are looking for (conceptually) equivalent functionality for launching builds from the IDE. Eclipse provides a nice Ant view for invoking Ant targets.
There is an Eclipse plugin for launching Gradle builds (http://www.breskeby.com/downloads/gradle/eclipse/update/), but this seems to require users to jump through hoops to invoke different targets (edit the launch configuration, etc.).
How are others using Gradle from inside Eclipse?
Solution
The short answer is that we do not invoke gradle scripts from Eclipse.
I believe this site outlines where this work is at the moment and it does not seem to be much right now.
I am a bit curious what kind of tasks you want to run from Eclipse. Why not run tasks from the command line?
