Getting the gradle wrapper

[Russel Winder-4]

I think I must just be missing it but where does one get the Gradle
Wrapper from in order to add it to a project?  I don't see a download on
the downloads page of just the wrapper for adding to an existing
project.

Thanks.

The buildmaster executes the gradle wrapper tasks which generates all  
the necessary artifacts. They are then submitted to VCS.

See: http://gradle.org/0.8/docs/userguide/gradle_wrapper.html

OK, I had failed to understand what was going on.  Now not the case :-)

I wonder if it might be wise to have a page on the website about this.

I tried putting 0.9 in as the version just for the hell of it, ran
gradle and it did something.  However when I did the gradlew:

        Downloading http://dist.codehaus.org/gradle/gradle-0.9-bin.zip
       
        Exception in thread "main" java.io.FileNotFoundException: http://dist.codehaus.org/gradle/gradle-0.9-bin.zip
        at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream(HttpURLConnection.java:1267)
        at org.gradle.wrapper.Download.downloadInternal(Download.java:48)
        at org.gradle.wrapper.Download.download(Download.java:36)
        at org.gradle.wrapper.Install.createDist(Install.java:59)
        at org.gradle.wrapper.Wrapper.execute(Wrapper.java:45)
        at org.gradle.wrapper.WrapperMain.main(WrapperMain.java:39)

Nothing wrong with the reaction since 0.9 has not been released.
However:

I wonder if the released Gradle should be able to check its wrapper
creation execution to ensure the requested version in possible so as to
get early failure?

Also I wonder if there is a need to issue a stack trace for this?
