Gradle execute Groovy script in GroovyShell with Eclipse Luna - eclipse

Question

I am getting a ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.ivy.core.report.ResolveReport when executing a gradle task, which uses Grapes to resolve dependencies.
I am using Eclipse Luna 4.4.0 with a Gradle/Groovy Project having this build.gradle:
apply plugin: 'groovy'
apply plugin:'application'
mainClassName = "de.my.app.package.Main"
version = 0.5
repositories { mavenCentral() }
dependencies {
compile 'org.codehaus.groovy:groovy-all:2.4.3'
compile group: 'org.apache.ivy', name:'ivy', version:'2.2.0'
compile 'commons-io:commons-io:2.4'
compile 'commons-codec:commons-codec:1.2'
}
task myTask << {
def groovyShell = new GroovyShell()
groovyShell.run(file('/src/scripts/groovy/de/my/app/package/scripts/SomeScript.groovy'))
}
classes.finalizedBy(myTask)
My Java Build Path inside Project->Properties looks like this:
This is SomeScript.groovy inside the Folder /src/scripts/groovy/de/my/app/package/scripts:
package de.my.app.package.scripts
#Grapes(
#Grab(group='org.eclipse.birt.runtime.3_7_1', module='org.apache.commons.codec', version='1.3.0')
)
#Grapes(
#Grab(group='commons-io', module='commons-io', version='2.4')
)
import org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Hex
println Hex.toString()
Weird thing is that executing SomeScript.groovy from cmd with groovy SomeScript.groovy does not give the error. So i am guessing it is some Eclipse config I have missed.
How can SomeScript.groovy be executed by the Gradle run from the build.gradle without causing a ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.ivy.core.report.ResolveReport?

Answer 1

I have found a solution for my problem. I needed this build.gradle file:
apply plugin: 'groovy'
apply plugin:'application'
mainClassName = "de.my.app.package.Main"
version = 0.5
repositories { mavenCentral() }
dependencies {
compile 'org.codehaus.groovy:groovy-all:2.4.3'
compile group: 'org.apache.ivy', name:'ivy', version:'2.2.0'
compile 'commons-io:commons-io:2.4'
compile 'commons-codec:commons-codec:1.2'
}
task myTask (type: Exec) {
def groovyHome = System.getenv("GROOVY_HOME")
def someScriptPath= new String(project.projectDir.toString()).toString() + "\\src\\scripts\\groovy\\de\\my\\app\\package\\main\\SomeScript.groovy"
commandLine "${groovyHome}\\bin\\groovy.bat", someScriptPath
}
classes.finalizedBy(myTask)
So I abandoned the approach of using the class GroovyShell, because I could not configure the classPath for it correctly.
My Script executes now before every run. Problem is solved.
