Support Kotlin gradle files?

[fbricon]

Buildship added support for kotlin: https://github.com/eclipse/buildship/tree/master/org.eclipse.buildship.kotlin

We need to evaluate whether we should embed that plugin as well, or let 3rd party adopters implement a jdt.ls extension for that.

I do not see why we should not include kotlin support? If a project prefers to use kotlin we should be able to import it.

@fbricon are there any docs you could point me at for how one might implement a jdt.ls extension?

Context: I'm running the LS behind a proxy so the gradlew file in the repo won't build by default. I'd prefer for the LS to use a gradle distribution URI or GRADLE_HOME from the environment ahead of using the workspace's gradlew.

@gatesn our wiki is unfortunately incomplete. You might want to look into https://github.com/gorkem/jdt.ls.pde as an exemple though

Whose gradlew file won't build? The users', the server's? Is it related to Kotlin support?

[gatesn]

No, sorry hijacked the ticket a little bit. Here's new one: #480

[fbricon]

Was fixed with #1849
