I’m trying to setup gradle to handle building on multiple operating systems and multiple architectures using the cpp plugin. Here is a sample of some of the build types I’m trying to accomplish:
| Architecture | Operating System | Toolchain | Notes/Questions |
| x86 | VxWorks | Custom executables | Can I define custom operating system? |
| x86 custom hardware | VxWorks | Custom executables | Can I define custom operating system and custom hardware? |
| x86 | LynxOS | GCC (in path) | Can I define custom operating system and custom hardware? |
| x86 custom hardware | LynxOS | GCC (in path) | Can I define custom operating system? |
| ppc | Linux(variant for ppc) | GCC custom executables | Working on this but gradle is complaining about the use of targetPlatform.architecture.ppc? |
| x86 | Linux | GCC | Done |
| x86_64 | Linux | GCC | Done |
| x86 | Windows | MINGW (on linux) | Doable, not tested |
| x86_64 | Windows | MINGW (on linux) | Doable, not tested |
| x86 | Windows | MINGW (on windows) | Doable, not tested |
| x86_64 | Windows | MINGW (on windows) | Doable, not tested |
| x86 | Windows | Visual studio (command line) | Doable, not tested |
| x86_64 | Windows | Visual studio (command line) | Doable, not tested |
I have found examples of some of this but not sure that I can accomplish everything I’m trying to do. Specifcally in regards to custom operating systems. I found information here on custom architecture https://github.com/gradle/gradle/blob/master/design-docs/continuous-delivery-for-c-plus-plus.md but I’m having difficulty getting existing architectures to work successfully (ppc for instance)
