----------------------------------------
Hi Pierre,
Thank you for your feedback. in reply:
- Yes I realize ant is not removed, this will happen in a later commit. This is a big task and I'm taking it in bite sizes, keeping ant as backup before I delete it
- It's better to use readme.md than readme because of the clarity of the output given that most of the readme is rewritten anyway.
- A simple find would suffice to find the eclipse command, anyway, no problem I can make a reference to it
- Your permission problem is there because I'm attaching a patch, not applying a commit. Patches do not preserve permissions. This issue will be resolved once a commit is pushed to trunk. You don't need to "stop" because of simple file permission issues.
- I did not remove the jars despite removing the .classpath file just to show that it works. There is a simple command ./gradlew eclipse which immediately generates the files you need
- the ./gradlew ofbiz command is named like that because this is a rule, not a fixed command. You can read more on gradle rules, but in essence, ./gradlw ofbiz is comparable to java -jar ofbiz.jar ... it's a gateway to all OFBiz commands.
