Gradle can also spit out Eclipse projects and Idea projects. That is what I use personally. Since eclipse projects are fairly universal any IDE that people may want to hack in can ingest that. (JDeveloper?) This make sense to me http://gradle.org/docs/current/userguide/eclipseplugin.html I like the idea that the source in the repo is IDE neutral. Right now Steve and I make sure the eclipse related files are in good shape, but every time something changes in the repo these files get broken. Btw, I can see Tom adding e(fx)clips behavior to the plugin so I can get all the e(fx)clipse sweetness in my IDE. Felipe

I don't personally like much the idea of keeping around IDE generated projects files in the repository to be honest. I rather prefer if the IDE is smart enough to figure the setup from the tool dedicated to the build (like Eclipse, IDEA and Netbeans do with Maven and C/C++ projects for example).

Cheers, Mario
