How to not have Gradle quit Scala's REPL immediately?

问题

These simple lines in build.gradle expose a repl task that would ideally fire up a scala REPL. Fire up and keep alive that is. After the repl loads, it immediately receives a :quit command and exits.

Important parts of build.gradle:

dependencies{
    compile "org.scala-lang:scala-library:2.11.7"
    compile "org.scala-lang:scala-compiler:2.11.7"
}

task repl(type:JavaExec) {
  main = "scala.tools.nsc.MainGenericRunner"
  classpath = sourceSets.main.runtimeClasspath
}

Launching the REPL:

% gradle repl
:compileJava UP-TO-DATE
:compileScala UP-TO-DATE
:processResources UP-TO-DATE
:classes UP-TO-DATE
:repl
Welcome to Scala version 2.11.7 (OpenJDK Server VM, Java 1.7.0_91).

REPL quits automatically immediately after launching. How to not have the REPL quit immediately?

You also need to redirect console input to your javaexec java process. Try adding standardInput System.in to your task definition. In my case, I also found it necessary to add args '-userjavacp'.

task repl(type:JavaExec) {
  main = "scala.tools.nsc.MainGenericRunner"
  classpath = sourceSets.main.runtimeClasspath
  standardInput System.in
  args '-usejavacp'
}

and finally running gradle with the -q option suppresses the gradle progress prompts giving me a cleaner scala repl.
