com.google.code.gson:gson - J2ObjC continuous build #19

Closed advayDev1 closed 8 years ago

advayDev1 commented 8 years ago

https://github.com/j2objc-contrib/j2objc-gradle/blob/master/systemTests/externalLibrary1/third_party_gson/build.gradle

Should convert the system tests in j2objc-gradle to an independent continuous build here.

cc @swankjesse @inder123 - this is an FYI that we've setup a continuous build to translate the Gson library to objective-C to allow it's use on iOS. This uses Google J2ObjC project to greatly extend the sharing of code on the two platforms.

Example build: https://travis-ci.org/j2objc-contrib/j2objc-common-libs-e2e-test/jobs/82360553

Wow! Awesome. Can you provide a link to where users can download this library for use in their iOS projects? I would like to put a link on Gson project page, and direct people to it on mailing lists.

@inder123 - we don't have any plans to publish pre-compiled libraries. In order to use this, someone will need to do their Android build in Gradle then correctly configure a further gradle for the Gson build. Here's an example for how this project would be done:

https://github.com/j2objc-contrib/j2objc-common-libs-e2e-test/blob/master/libraryBuilds/com.google.code.gson-gson/build.gradle

My suggestion is to first try this yourself, so you understand how it works. Likely this process will improve a great deal over the next few releases.
