Gradle Version: 2.14
Operating System: Ubuntu 16.04
Is this a regression? If yes, which version of Gradle do you know it last worked for?
2.13

The project Closure

idea {
        project {
            jdkName = source
            languageLevel = source
            vcs = 'Git'
        }
}

can only be configured on the root project - not on subprojects. This means it shouldn’t be in the allprojects closure but on top level in your build file.

Does this fix your problem?

Yes, this fixes my problem!

I have the same problem with the Eclipse plugin, but moving the closure outside does not help:

toplevel build.gradle file:
apply plugin: 'eclipse’
eclipse {
classpath {
file {
whenMerged { classpath ->
print classpath
}
}
}
}

and while invoking a task of the Eclipse plugin on top-level or on a subproject level, I get an exception:
…
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Value is null
at org.gradle.internal.metaobject.BeanDynamicObject.(BeanDynamicObject.java:89)
at org.gradle.internal.metaobject.BeanDynamicObject.(BeanDynamicObject.java:80)
at org.gradle.api.internal.DynamicObjectUtil.asDynamicObject(DynamicObjectUtil.java:30)
at org.gradle.internal.metaobject.ConfigureDelegate.(ConfigureDelegate.java:36)
at org.gradle.util.ConfigureUtil.configure(ConfigureUtil.java:106)
…

Seems to be related to this issue, because the Eclipse plugin does the following:
void file(Closure closure) {
ConfigureUtil.configure(closure, file)
}

and ConfigureUtil is a class of the main Gradle build. Any ideas what I do wrong here? Is this related the Idea plugin? Or should I create a separate forum entry?

Thanks.
