Looking forward to better support for native artifact publishing.
Below is a Hello World c++ example that I put together that compiles a hello world application, puts together a .tgz distribution and publishes it to an Artifactory snapshot repository. It pulls together some of the pieces I have been trying to figure out. Hopefully it will help some other people trying to publish native artifacts to Artifactory.
I’d also be VERY interested in ways to do this more easily or in a more Gradle-like way. I’m still wrapping my head around this stuff. Thx.
apply plugin: 'cpp'
apply plugin: 'maven-publish' //required by artifactory-publish
apply plugin: 'distribution'
// automatically get the artifactory-publish plugin and it's dependencies

maven { url 'http://repo.jfrog.org/artifactory/gradle-plugins-snapshots' }

failOnVersionConflict()
cacheDynamicVersionsFor 0, 'seconds'
cacheChangingModulesFor 0, 'seconds'
