----------------------------------------

Thanks, everyone for detailed discussion.

Loved your work [~soledad] ! :)

Here are my inputs and details on minor issue I faced

+*Issue faced:*+

The whereis -b $1 | grep / command in my machine is giving following error
{code:java}
whereis: illegal option -- b
usage: whereis program [...]{code}
I am using Mac, here are details of my OS

*macOS Mojave*
 *Version 10.14.3 (18D109)*

I can understand that we used -b to search only for binaries in the script.

I also checked the manual of whereis command on mac using command
{code:java}
man whereis{code}
It also don't show -b option for whereis command on mac. (I know it generally works for Linux based OS).

So, to fix this, I removed the -b option from whereis command in script.
After this everything works like charm for me.

Is anybody faced the same issue on the Mac?

 

+*Suggestion/Improvement:*+

When I run the script the first time (after above fix), it starts downloading gradle. Now before completing the download, I mistakenly stop the downloading by terminating the download process.
After this, I run the *init-gradle-wrapper-trunk-and-18.sh* script *again*.
But this time I got following error
{code:java}
Archive:  gradle-5.0-bin.zip
  End-of-central-directory signature not found.  Either this file is not
  a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive.  In the
  latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
  the last disk(s) of this archive.
unzip:  cannot find zipfile directory in one of gradle-5.0-bin.zip or
        gradle-5.0-bin.zip.zip, and cannot find gradle-5.0-bin.zip.ZIP, period.
init-gradle-wrapper-trunk-and-18.sh: line 63: ./runtime/tmp/gradle-5.0/bin/gradle: No such file or directory{code}
Since my *gradle-5.0-bin.zip* was corrupted because I stoped the download process in between.

The command
{code:java}
unzip gradle-5.0-bin.zip{code}
throws the above error.

To fix this, I removed the corrupted file and run the script again,and everything worked as expected.

We can do an improvement here, after running the command *unzip gradle-5.0-bin.zip*
If it fails, we can show the message to the user to remove the corrupted file and run the script again.

Here is suggested code improvement
{code:java}
unzip $GRADLE_ZIP_RELEASE;
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
  cd ../..
  ./runtime/tmp/$GRADLE_RELEASE/bin/$CMD_INIT_WRAPPER
else
  echo "\nThe gradle-5.0-bin.zip file is corrupted.\nPlease remove this file from
$OFBIZ_HOME/runtime/tmp location and run the script again."
fi{code}
Please feel free to share your thoughts on this.

Nice work [~soledad] , thanks again!

> Following the discussion at http://markmail.org/message/nd7grfiyobjkfwae, considering LEGAL-288 and based on a lazy consensus on dev ML, we want to remove the gradle-wrapper.jar file from the next packaged releases and  use [~jacopoc]'s related proposition to document how to have Gradle working in the main README.md file.
> # Extract the archive file to your local directory.
> # Download gradle-wrapper.jar and place it in the OFBiz-root-dir/gradle/wrapper folder.
> I'm not sure if we should recommend a link to download the gradle-wrapper.jar. This might change in the future (versions, etc.), so indeed maybe simply asking to download is enough, cf  https://www.google.com/search?q=gradle-wrapper.jar+download&ie=UTF-8
> Also we need to add a point about removing gradle-wrapper.jar in https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBIZ/Release+Management+Guide+for+OFBiz
