Ok, I created an issue to support "compile.from(task)" (without to_s) and added a note on the "How To" page about this bug.

Thanks a lot for the answers. indeed I tried the example pointed out by alex, but I always got the error 'TypeError : can't convert Rake::FileTask into String'.
Your suggestion here indeed fixed my problem! It works with 'compile.from generate.to_s' (I tried to put this to_s into other places, which made that error disappear, but other errors came up instead.)
As for eclipse, it worked out of the box, the .classpath was extended automatically, as suggested by peter donald.
Thanks very much! alvi

There is some kind of bug. In this example should be "compile.from generate.to_s", this to_s is significant.
Thanks.

Hello,
I've been stuck for a while now with this problem, neither googling nor stackoverflow nor my strained brain could solve this: I would like to generate sources and have buildr compile them with some other hand written sources. I would also be happy if I could have a sub-project that just deals with the generated classes and use them in other project. So basically:
- buildr should call a generator (either a java program, or a shell script, or even an ant script, whatever works) - buildr should compile the resulting classes - buildr should add those sources to eclipse
I have found an old thread from 2009 with the same title, but none of the solutions there work (I'm getting so many errors that I wouldn't even know where to start, or nothing happens). I assume that buildr evolved quite a bit since then.
I've been very happy with buildr so far, but unfortunately I don't know ruby and rake yet and now I want to do something slightly non-standard, so I'm aware that I may have chosen the wrong build system for me. Still, I'd rather not go back to ant at this point.
I would be grateful if someone could give me an example of a working buildfile that does sth like what I've described. I've got an open question on stackoverflow, so if you need some karma, I'm happy to provide. (see:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7091659/using-generated-sources-in-a-buildr-project
I just offered a bounty.)
Thanks! alvi
