I want to Import my Existing Gradle projects into Eclipse which i have checked out from SVN into my local directories. The Projects contains the code on two Branches. I have tried using Importing Existing gradle project Option but after import i am getting No Build Path errors when i am trying to use Eclipse see call hierarchy and other functionalities. I don't necessarily want to build the project from eclipse i just want to edit the code in eclipse and want changes to reflect in the local ,from where i can build manually.
Can you please direct me to some link or provide steps to achieve this?

You can use gradle eclipse plugin to create a eclipse project file.
First apply the plugin in your build.gradle as below :
apply plugin: 'eclipse'
Then use below command to generate the eclipse project file as below:
gradle eclipse
Then import this project using eclipse's import project feature.

I have a (command-line) maven based project which just works great (mvn clean, mvn verify, install all perfect)! I want now import this into eclipse not as maven project but regular eclipse project.
I did it but I have a dependency issue which I solved by just copying all the jars created into the .m2 folder to another folder into my eclipse workspace. Then I've added all these jars to my project.
everything ok!
Question is: I have the feeling that this is not the best way to manage the dependency in eclipse ... what do you suggest? best practices
If you have a simple java project which is made up of only one module, using Eclipse is very simple. To generate the Eclipse project files from your POM you execute the following command:
mvn eclipse:eclipse
If you have created or checked out the project with Eclipse, you only have to refresh the project in your workspace. Otherwise you have to import the project into your Eclipse workspace (From the menu bar, select File > Import > Existing Projects into Workspace). In the latter case the project (directory) should not be located in your workspace, because Eclipse might come into trouble, especially if you want to use Eclipse as the scm client.
I have searched around and couldn't find a direct answer in how to import an existing AEM project on my local into Eclipse. I am relativity new to AEM and would like to use the features Eclipse has. I have the AEM plug in downloaded and am able to create a new project, just not import.
I am not using maven, just packages and OSGI.
Advice?
You can create a new AEM archetype project (provided by the AEM eclipse plugin). That project will be a maven project.
Since you are not using maven in your current project, you can manually move all of your java files into their respective location on the newly created AEM project. As for the java dependencies, you can lookup tutorials on how to use maven and add your java dependencies to it. or you can just add your dependencies directly on the project, but I recommend using maven.
You have only package and OSGI bundle, so you can only modify the content (package) and cannot modify the bundle.
We cannot import a project from the osgi bundle to make the source code editable.
For import AEM project to Eclipse, follow the procedure:
Import AEM project as maven projects. Please check with image.
Then select your project and build.
From where you are getting those packages and bundles?
When ever you build the project from the source(cmd : mvn clean install), packages/bundles will be generated under respective target folder based on pom.
So, you can only import project source on eclipse and not the generated target files.
I'm trying to open a web application project which is made using spring framework. But when I download the project it seems to be wrapped with Gradle.
Please guide me a way to open this project using Eclipse IDE.
Just execute gradlew eclipse to generate the needed eclipse files and then just import it with Existing Project into Workspace
There appears to be an Eclipse plugin for Gradle, but no Gradle plugin for Eclipse...
Simply, I'd like to add a build.gradle to my Eclipse project, write its contents (including defining its dependencies), and then run it from inside Eclipse, the same way I can run Ant scripts from inside Eclipse.
When it runs, I'd expect the plugin to pull down all dependencies and make them available to my project's classpath in Eclipse.
If no such plugin exists, then I ask: what's the best way to develop in Eclipse, but keep your builds managed by Gradle? If I decide I need a new xyz.jar as a dependency for my code, how do I add it as a dependency in such a way that both Gradle and Eclipse will recognize it (and not throw compiler errors)?
Either use the IDE project generation approach (gradle eclipse), or use the Eclipse Gradle Integration. In both cases, you'll want to apply plugin: "eclipse".
The Gradle plugin for Eclipse is part of the Spring IDE. It understands the dependencies specified in the build script and makes those available in the .classpath.
I've installed eclipse gradle plugin from here

Is there a simple way to import into eclipse gradle project using gui, not doing stuff
described here: http://gradle.org/docs/current/userguide/eclipse_plugin.html
?
Usually it is a simple as adding apply plugin: "eclipse" in your build.gradle and running
cd myProject/
gradle eclipse
and then refreshing your Eclipse project.
Occasionally you'll need to adjust build.gradle to generate Eclipse settings in some very specific way.
There is gradle support for Eclipse if you are using STS, but I'm not sure how good it is.
The only IDE I know that has decent native support for gradle is IntelliJ IDEA. It can do full import of gradle projects from GUI. There is a free Community Edition that you can try.
There is a simplest and quick way to import a Gradle project into Eclipse.
Just download the Gradle plugin for Eclipse from here.
https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/gradle-integration-eclipse-0
And then from import select Gradle and your project would be imported. Then you have to click on Build Model to run it.
EDIT
Above link for Gradle plugin is no more valid. You can use the link as mentioned in the comment by #vikramvi
https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/buildship-gradle-integration
Add the following to your build.gradle
apply plugin: 'eclipse'
and browse to the project directory
gradle eclipse
I have gone through this question earlier but did not found complete gui based solution.Today I got a GUI based solution provided by spring.
In short we need to do only that much:
1.Install plugin in eclipse from update site:
site link
2.Import project as gradle and browse the .gradle file..that's it.
Complete documentation is here
The simpliest way is to use sts gradle integration and import project
http://static.springsource.org/sts/docs/2.7.0.M1/reference/html/gradle/gradle-sts-tutorial.html
Don't forget to click "Build Model" button.
You can do the following steps:
Install the Buildship Gradle Integration using the Eclipse Marketplace. Simply type Buildship and click on search item. Now click on Install.
Click on File -> Import ▸ Existing Gradle Project.
Navigate to project root directory.
Click on a finish to load your project.
Might be it will take some time for the first time to import Gradle project. So please be patient on it.
Open eclipse and right click in the package explorer → import
Select gradle
Browse to the location where you checked out
Click “Build Model”
Select all the projects and hit finish
Go to the GitHub page where they are maintain the official repository:
https://github.com/spring-projects/eclipse-integration-gradle/blob/master/README.md
Copy the latest release link:
http://dist.springsource.com/release/TOOLS/gradle (latest release)
Use this in Eclipse->Help->Install New Software..->Paste the link in "Work With"->press enter->select the names of the extension->click next and agree the license and follow the prompts.
After you have installed just import the project as a grade project and eclipse will take of the rest.
I use another Eclipse plugin to import existing gradle projects.
You can install the Builship Gradle Gntegration 2.0 using the Eclipse Marketplace client.
Then you choose FIle ▸ Import ▸ Existing Gradle Project.
Finially, indicate your project root directory and click finish.
As of the time of answering this, Eclipse Version: 2020-06 (4.16.0) has a File --> Import --> Gradle --> Existing gradle project menu option.You can use this option to import gradle project into Eclipse directly.
Add the following to your build.gradle
apply plugin: 'eclipse'
and browse to the project directory
gradle eclipse
Once done, you could import the project from eclipse as simple Java Project.
