Hi!

I'm trying to create an aggregation project.

My build.gradle is following:

buildscript {
repositories { mavenCentral() } dependencies { classpath group: 'org.gradlefx', name: 'gradlefx', version: '0.6.3' } }

subprojects {
apply plugin: 'gradlefx'

srcDirs = ['src']
localeDir = 'locale'


flexHome = 'D:\\development\\adobe-flex-4.6\\'

}

configure(['Commons']) {
type = 'swc' println "in sub projects $project.name" }

configure(['Manager', 'VideoChat']) {
type = 'swf' }

---

gradle compile fails with warning

Creating properties on demand (a.k.a. dynamic properties) has been deprecated and is scheduled to be removed in Gradle 2.0. Please read http://gradle.org/docs/current/dsl/org.gradle.api.plugins.ExtraProp... for information on the replacement for dynamic properties.

Deprecated dynamic property: "type" on "root project 'flex'", value: "swc".

and then NPE

java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke method isLib() on null object
at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.NullObject.invokeMethod(NullObject.java:77) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.PogoMetaClassSite.call(PogoMetaClassSite.java:45) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.CallSiteArray.defaultCall(CallSiteArray.java:42) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.NullCallSite.call(NullCallSite.java:32) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.CallSiteArray.defaultCall(CallSiteArray.java:42) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.AbstractCallSite.call(AbstractCallSite.java:108) at org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.callsite.AbstractCallSite.call(AbstractCallSite.java:112) at org.gradlefx.plugins.GradleFxPlugin$_addTasks_closure1.doCall(GradleFxPlugin.groovy:53)

What I'm doing wrong? It looks like gradle applied the gradlefx plugin for the aggregation project itself, but does not see a type in it.

Thank you

   Looks indeed like the type property isn't set on the subprojects.
   I haven't used the "configure()" syntax before, but are you sure you can just pass in the subproject names?

   Also, if it should be possible to just provide strings, try prefixing them with a colon, like this:

   configure([':Commons'])
   

   or otherwise try this:

    configure([project(':Commons')]) {

   Thank you, the second is working!
