I’m using Gradle 6.7 in Ubuntu 20.04 behind a corporate proxy requiring basic authentication to compile the JVARKIT.
Unfortunately, Gradle is not able to download required dependencies, regardless of the provided settings, neither via ~/.gradle/gradle.properties nor via command line (-Dhttps.proxyHost=...) nor providing it via export ANT_OPTS=.
Then I enabled ant.lifecycleLogLevel = "VERBOSE" in build.gradle and I expected to see something like [ant:setproxy] Setting proxy to ... but it is not logged.
After adding ant.setproxy(proxyHost: ant.properties['https.proxyHost'], proxyPort: ant.properties['https.proxyPort'], proxyUser: ant.properties['https.proxyUser'], proxyPassword: ant.properties['https.proxyPassword']) to build.gradle I get the expected log line and Gradle downloads the dependencies.
IMHO, neither Ant nor Gradle uses the environment or command line proxy variables except ant.setproxy(...) is called. Is this a Gradle or Ant bug?
