This commit adds a check to the support code for the Gradle plugin
bootBuildImage task to ensure that the jar file that will be passed
to a builder is readable and has a valid directory. This prevents a
situation where the jar file cannot be read because it is prepended
with a launch script, and the builder does not receive any files to
process.
Notes have also been added to the Gradle plugin documentation to warn
against using a bootJar launchScript configuration and bootBuildImage
together, as well as caveats about launchScript that match the Maven
plugin documentation.
Fixes gh-22223
Previously, the developmentOnly configuration, typically used for
Devtools, had to be declared manually. The BootJar and BootWar tasks
then had a property, excludeDevtools, that could be used to control
whether or not Devtools would be excluded from the executable archive.
This commit updates the reaction to the Java plugin being applied to
automatically create the developmentOnly configuration. The classpaths
of bootJar and bootWar are then configured not to include the contents
of the developmentOnly configuration. As a result of this, the
excludeDevtools property is no longer needed and has been deprecated.
Its default has also been changed from true to false to make it easy
to opt in to Devtools, when configured as a development-only
dependency, being included in executable jars and wars by adding
developmentOnly to the classpath of the archive task.
Closes gh-16599
This commit adds configuration to the Spring Boot Gradle plugin that
allows the names and contents of layers to be customized in the build
configuration.
