Use Java system properties like java.io.tmpdir

[MarkMcCallTR]

I have not figured out a way to get the plugin to use System properties that I manually set like java.io.tmpdir. I have tried the following:

Option 1 System.setProperty('java.io.tmpdir', "c:/mytempdir") // called at top of build.gradle

Option 2 tasks.withType(org.wisepersist.gradle.plugins.gwt.GwtCompile) { System.setProperty('java.io.tmpdir', "c:/mytempdir") }

It continues to use the default system level tmp directory C:\Users\myuser\AppData\Local\Temp. I don't want to set this value system wide, and only want to set it when executing this gradle script.

Is there another way or does the plugin not support that?

Just enabled configuration for extra JVM arguments. Could you please try the following?

plugins {
  id "org.wisepersist.gwt" version "1.1.7-rc"
}

// ...

gwt {
    extraJvmArgs = ["-Djava.io.tmpdir=c:/mytempdir"]
}

that version of the plugin does not work. I get the error "Error: Could not find or load main class []". 1.1.6 and prior run without issue.

Plugin declaration:

plugins { id "org.wisepersist.gwt" version "1.1.7-rc" }

Fixed. Also tested the extraJvmArgs property in examples/compile-only/build.gradle.

gwt {
  extraJvmArgs = ["-Djava.io.tmpdir=${userHome}/Desktop/temp"]
}

Please try with:

plugins { id "org.wisepersist.gwt" version "1.1.8" }
