Is it possible to run
grails clean
grails build
ect
tasks from ant script?
Thanks!
Try this macro. Though it gives pretty much what the ANT exec task would give you.

Is it possible to generate a WAR using the Gradle wrapper (ie. gradlew) that comes with a Grails application?
As far as I can tell, after listing all the available tasks, it doesn't seem like it's possible. If not, I wonder why it isn't.
Side note, using it to publish to Artifactory, which is cool IMO.
Update #1
me#workstation ~/ghi
$ ./gradlew help --task assemble

Path
:assemble
Type
Task (org.gradle.api.Task)
Description
Assembles the outputs of this project.

BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 6.345 secs
Update #2
I tried the following command: gradlew -Dgrails.env=xxx war
META-INF\grails.build.info shows grails.env=xxx.
Seems like that would work.
The command you're looking for is
./gradlew assemble
and your war will be in build/libs/
Is it possible to create JIRA issues using Ant tasks?
I'd like to automatically create JIRA issues using Ant.
Please check ant-jira. I never used it, looks like you can find some use and tell us how useful it is.
Use an Ant task to execute a shell command. Make the shell command the Atlassian CLI from Bob Swift.
I need to fork a new process for a specific ant task. I dont see a fork attribute in the taskdef how do I do it ?
I should be clearer, I am not talking about executing ANT in a forked process:
I have an ant task X, which I need to run in a forked process. Its some third party task which i use with taskdef X and then use this way
Is there anyway to tell any that anytime i use that task please fork the process and run ?
See Running Ant via Java in the Ant manual.
I'm a beginner of Grail. I learned from the quick-start tutorial that the grails create-app will generate a build.xml for Ant.
I execute the command. but couldn't get the build.xml file. Is there missing any steps? Any help is appreciated.
As Don said you really don't need it. But if you want the build.xml that used to be automatically created, run
grails integrate-with --ant
See http://grails.org/doc/latest/ref/Command%20Line/integrate-with.html
Grails may generate a build.xml file "under the hood", but there's no reason for you to worry about this, because you don't work with Ant directly when developing with Grails. Instead you use Grails commands (like create-app) to create, build, test, deploy, etc. Grails applications.
The create-app command creates a new application. To run the application, execute the command grails run-app from the root directory of the project.
When running msbuild.exe with ANT's exec task, errors in the .net code do not result in the build process failing.
Why would this be?
I use Nant to run some MSBuild tasks. Every time I use the failonbuild attribute of that task, it fails for me. Looking at Apache's documentation for Ant, it would appear the same attribute is there as well. Are you using this attribute?
I arrived at a solution and used Exec's failonerror, works like a charm.
What do you let the msbuild task do ?
When I used NAnt previously, I used the task to build a VS.NET solution.
Right now, I'm not using NAnt anymore, I use msbuild instead. :)
