LegacyMultiToolSet

A libGDX project generated with gdx-liftoff.

Run multiple Libgdx demos without the overhead and hassle creating an entirely new project for each concept involves.

Multi-Tool embeds Libgdx into a Swing Canvas/GUI that will allow you to easily create and run new demos, view code, and interface Libgdx code with Swing interface.

TODO: Ditch the Swing frontend and attempt integration with JavaFX for a snappier interfcae and more modern look.

Gradle

This project uses Gradle to manage dependencies. The Gradle wrapper was included, so you can run Gradle tasks using gradlew.bat or ./gradlew commands. Useful Gradle tasks and flags:

• --continue: when using this flag, errors will not stop the tasks from running.
• --daemon: thanks to this flag, Gradle daemon will be used to run chosen tasks.
• --offline: when using this flag, cached dependency archives will be used.
• --refresh-dependencies: this flag forces validation of all dependencies. Useful for snapshot versions.
• build: builds sources and archives of every project.
• cleanEclipse: removes Eclipse project data.
• cleanIdea: removes IntelliJ project data.
• clean: removes build folders, which store compiled classes and built archives.
• eclipse: generates Eclipse project data.
• idea: generates IntelliJ project data.
• lwjgl2:jar: builds application's runnable jar, which can be found at lwjgl2/build/libs.
• lwjgl2:run: starts the application.
• test: runs unit tests (if any).

Note that most tasks that are not specific to a single project can be run with name: prefix, where the name should be replaced with the ID of a specific project. For example, core:clean removes build folder only from the core project.
