Define range of port used to create Can we define range of ports that should be used by gradlewhile using ephemeral ports?

Can we define range of ports that should be used by gradle (gradle plugins) while using

ephemeral ports?

Use case:

Recently I wanted to deploy my gradle project with groovy plugin into OpenShift however I run into problems due to lack of permission to open a certain port. Openshift let you use only a certain port range and during compileGroovy pahse a new random port is used that doesn’t fall into OpenShift Port range and that cause a problem. There is no way of defining what port can be used… Can we do something about it?

It’s not a supported feature, but one that might be worthwhile to support. Filed GRADLE-2970 to track this.
