SonarQube VS Gradle

There are commercial tools that can be integrated into a CI pipeline and/or a developer's IDE. I've used SonarQube before, but there are others.

having a code review and analysis tool in CI/CD pipeline can help developers to keep their code clean. some examples of these tools are sonarqube and embold.

But back in 2012, tech debt-related tools were in their infancy. JetBrains released IntelliJ IDEA in 2000, and SonarQube was initially released in 2006. Stepsize started in 2015, and Visual studio intellicode wasn't made by Microsoft until 2018.

The generated classes should be put into .gitignore. Otherwise, if you have Checkstyle, PMD, or SonarQube in your project, then generated classes can violate some rules. Besides, if you don't put them into .gitignore, then each pull request might become huge due to the fact that even a slightest fix can lead to lots of changes in the generated classes.

A ("shared") build service is kind of like a singleton, in that when you register one in any project, it's available in all projects as a single instance. (This unfortunately turns out not to be true, in some cases, when using composite builds, but can be worked around.) An actual singleton (global static instance) doesn't work at all, for the record—try it if you want to lose some sanity. Anyway, use a build service whenever you need global mutable state in your build.

When using build tools like Maven or Gradle, you can configure environment variables in the build scripts or configuration files.

For large projects, purpose-made build tools such as Gradle and Maven are preferred for managing the directory structure since they introduce additional semantics for managing test code and other programming languages (among lots of other things). Most IDEs can integrate with these build tools easily. If you're just starting out though, I wouldn't worry too much about these, you can visit them later.

Project Build and Management: Apache Maven 3 (3.9.5), Gradle 8 (8.3)

No wonder this had been raised previously, https://github.com/gradle/gradle/issues/15383

Ktor, a powerful web framework built with Kotlin, offers a lightweight and flexible solution for building web applications. In this article, we will guide you through the process of creating a Ktor project manually using Gradle and SDKMAN!. By following the steps below, you'll have a basic Ktor project up and running in no time.

The details regarding the code compiling would vary from one project to another. For that project, it seems that it uses Gradle (a helper tool) for compiling. Check Gradle's documentation for more information.

At the moment, Java 20 is the latest version, but Java 17 is the latest LTS release. It's usually best to use an LTS release, because the latest releases won't be widely supported. And that's true of Gradle too. You're using Gradle 8.0, but not even the latest version of Gradle (8.2) fully supports Java 20. You'll have to wait for Gradle 8.3 to use Java 20.
