我怎样才能有单独的 gradle 项目的调试和发布版本，它们可以引入相同 class 的不同版本？

Question

I have two versions of the same Java class (same name / methods). Since it's Java, both.java files have the same name. I want to configure gradle in such a way that I can build a "debug" version of my application that pulls in one of these files, and a "production" version of my application that pulls in the other one. How would I go about doing this?

This class has only static methods. I don't ever want to make an instance of this class. I additionally don't want to add the overhead of an if statement in each of the methods on this class to check which version I'm in.

Following @JFabianMeier's answer you could use 4 projects:

1. with the production version class
2. with the debug version class
3. with code that uses either of the two, parameterized according to Migrating Maven profiles... → Example 6. Mimicking the behavior of Maven profiles in Gradle . (I'm also a Maven guy and therefore can't tell you exactly how to do it in Gradle.)
4. a multi - project with 1./2./3. as sub [-] projects for building all of them in one go, maybe parameterized to build just 1.+ 3. or 2.+ 3.

Have you tried creating production and debug source directories/sets? According to the docs you can use multiple directories when specifying source directories in your source set. Try dropping the different versions of your class in their respective production/debug source directories.

I haven't tested myself (not sure about the syntax), but this is based on the Gradle's Java compilation documentation .

sourceSets {
    // Could also name this production
    main {
        java {
            srcDirs ['src/main/java', 'src/prod/java']
        }
    }
    debug {
        java {
            srcDirs ['src/main/java', 'src/debug/java']
        }
    }
}

Answer 3

You could do the following:

• Put the class into a separate project (so generate a separate jar from it)
• Then you can have two different jars, for production and debugging
• Then you can pull either one or the other jar in gradle depending on a parameter.

Alternatively, you could look into template engines like Velocity which allow you to generate source code during the build depending on variables and then compile it.

Android has a neat feature called Product Flavors. It lets you swap classes at compile time effortlessly and keep your project clean.

This post is very good to get a taste of it: https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2015/12/leveraging-product-flavors-in-android.html
