I created a Gradle application that won't run correctly but running the class directly in command line works as expected

Here is my project: https://github.com/CptSpaceToaster/Lightscreen

I can compile and build a project as expected using gradle, however the application pluggin fails to find the class for some reason

I was able to repeat the bug on another linux (kernel 3.18.6) box, which was running Java 8 update 40 - http://i.imgur.com/o9rEIor.png

$ git clone https://github.com/CptSpaceToaster/Lightscreen.git  $ cd Lightscreen  // This should fail, and I don't know why  $ ./gradlew --info run  // But this should work  $ /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/bin/java  -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Duser.country=US -Duser.language=en -Duser.variant -cp /home/toaster/Github/Lightscreen/build/classes/main:/home/toaster/Github/Lightscreen/build/resources/main Lightscreen

I was NOT able to repeat this behavior on windows Thoughts? I’m reporting this as a bug, however it may be stupid configuration on my end.

Fixed:

Removed the following line from my build.gradle ‘’‘applicationDefaultJvmArgs = [""]’’’

Apparently, this passes in a blank argument to the JVM (maybe surrounded in quotes… maybe not) And that causes it to fail on Unix systems.

Thank you darylteo for the fix over in #gradle.
