convert ant/eclipse project to gradle?

[Chris Dawson]

I'm playing with gradle and like what I see. I've been trying to move an eclipse (which I can also run via ant) into gradle. I get some errors and am stuck being a newbie to gradle.

Here is the build.gradle file I am currently using, stepping through rewriting this from samples I see on the web.

Here is the output when I run gradle --debug

I started my project by moving these files:

• Moved src/com/... to src/main/com/... 
• Moved my AndroidManifest.xml (which was in the root) into src/main

Is there a guide somewhere which can help me get through these issues and know the correct way to do this?

I figured it out, needed to downgrade to gradle 1.2. For anyone using OSX and brew, this documents how I did it:

Aaaaand, I guess these instructions are only necessary if you are using the android gradle plugin 0.2. Setting this to 0.3 inside build.gradle (classpath 'com.android.tools.build:gradle:0.3') then works. I had to upgrade my android build tools but then I was able to use gradle 1.4.
