Since there is no Gradle plugin for axis2 (a wsdl code generator), I called an Ant task in a custom Gradle task.

As of now ./gradlew build generates the code, and ./gradlew clean deletes it. Also, the code is only generated if changes in the input file(s) or in the output directory are detected.

The only problem I'm having is that the code is not generated automatically when the project is imported into an IDE.

How do I need to change the build.gradle.kts below in order to have the IDEs (currently IntelliJ, but I would also like support for Eclipse) generate the code on import?

plugins 
 id("base") // needed for delete


val axis2 by configurations.creating

dependencies 
 axis2("org.apache.axis2:axis2-ant-plugin:$axis2Version")
 axis2("org.apache.axis2:axis2-xmlbeans:$axis2Version")



val wsdl2Java by tasks.registering 
 group = "build"
 description = "Creates Java classes and resources from WSDL schema."

 inputs.files(fileTree("$projectDir/src/main/resources/wsdl"))
 outputs.dir("$projectDir/generated/")

 doLast 
 ant.withGroovyBuilder 
 "echo"("message" to "Generating Classes from WSDL!")
 "taskdef"("name" to "codegen", "classname" to "org.apache.axis2.tool.ant.AntCodegenTask", "classpath" to axis2.asPath)
 "codegen"(
 "wsdlfilename" to "$projectDir/src/main/resources/wsdl/MP12N-H-HOST-WEB-SOAP.wsdl",
 "output" to "$projectDir/generated/",
 "targetSourceFolderLocation" to "src/main/java",
 "targetResourcesFolderLocation" to "src/main/resources",
 "packageName" to "de.hanel.com.jws.main",
 "databindingName" to "xmlbeans")
 
 



val deleteGenerated by tasks.registering(Delete::class) 
 delete("$projectDir/generated/")


tasks 
 compileJava 
 dependsOn(wsdl2Java)
 

 clean 
 dependsOn(deleteGenerated)
 


java 
 sourceSets["main"].java 
 srcDir("generated/src/main/java")
 

 sourceSets["main"].resources 
 srcDir("generated/src/main/resources")
 

You can mark any task or run configuration to be activated before/after Gradle import or IDE make:

I have a working solution now. Both Eclipse and IntelliJ generate the source code on import.

First we add the IDE-specific plugins.

apply 
 plugin("idea")
 plugin("eclipse")

Then we get the corresponding IDE tasks and add our own task, that was defined in val wsdl2Java, as dependency

// find by name (in tasks container), since a module is also called 'idea'
project.tasks.findByName("idea")?.dependsOn(wsdl2Java)
project.tasks.findByName("eclipse")?.dependsOn(wsdl2Java)

The only problem is that apparently Eclipse can't handle

java 
 sourceSets["main"].java 
 srcDir("generated/src/main/java")
 

 sourceSets["main"].resources 
 srcDir("generated/src/main/resources")
 

But that's a different question.

UPDATE

The code block below tells Eclipse to include the generated sources

eclipse 
 classpath 
 plusConfigurations.add(configurations.findByName("compile"))
 

and this tells IntelliJ to mark the generated, and already included, sources as generated

idea 
 module 
 generatedSourceDirs.add(file("generated/src/main/java"))
