Sorry about the delayed response. Im sorry but yes there are currently issues when using the plugin within windows environments. It is discussed extensively in #6

The quickest short term workaround is outlined in this comment #6 (comment)

There is a long term stable solution currently queued up for the next release is this PR #87

Thanks @marcoferrer-- I left a single comment on the PR. Otherwise it looks good to me.

[marcoferrer]

@mattdkerr No worries. Thanks again for reporting. The PRs been merged and I published a snapshot of 0.6.0

Please let me know if you run into anymore issues. I’m really happy to get this resolved. The issues with windows compatibility have been bugging me for a while.

I pulled in the 0.6.0-SNAPSHOT version and changed the line to look like:

artifact = "com.github.marcoferrer.krotoplus:protoc-gen-kroto-plus:$krotoPlusVersion"

and then I get successful generateProto and compileJava sequences. Thanks!

Will this then be released?

[marcoferrer]

Awesome thanks for the confirmation! The goal is to release later this week.

Using 0.6.0-SNAPSHOT and removing :jvm8@jar from the artifact in my protobuf config got this working on Windows for me.

My full protobuf config is:

protobuf {
    protoc {
        artifact = "com.google.protobuf:protoc:$protobuf_version"
    }

    //noinspection GroovyAssignabilityCheck
    plugins {
        grpc { artifact = "io.grpc:protoc-gen-grpc-java:$grpc_version" }
        coroutines {
            artifact = "com.github.marcoferrer.krotoplus:protoc-gen-grpc-coroutines:$krotoplus_version"
        }
    }

    generateProtoTasks {
        all().each{ task ->
            task.plugins {
                grpc {}
                coroutines {}
            }
        }
    }
}

With 0.6.0 released, there is now an executable windows artifact available.
