How to use gradle properties in build.gradle

Question

When I run this task:

task tmpTask << {
    project.properties.each {println \"   $it\"}
}

I see:

org.gradle.java.home=/u         


        

Answer 1

project.properties is a Map

So you can use

project.properties['org.gradle.java.home']

You can also use the property() method (but that looks in additional locations):

project.property('org.gradle.java.home')
