Gradle error on eclipse 2020-12 : Task:compileJava FAILED Unrecognized option : -h

Question

When I lunch my Gradle build scripts I get the following error:

Task:compileJava FAILED Unrecognized option: -h .

I tried to fix that by setting up eclipse to use a specific Gradle Version

Yet when I do that my Gradle tasks fail to load altogether

Please note that the build used to go through on the former version of eclipse, yet I had to use the latest version since I updated my OS to Mac Big Sur

Answer 1

I resolved it by adding

options.headerOutputDirectory.convention(null)

to compileJava Gradle task
