Use global gradle install with Buildship

I want to create a Gradle project in Eclipse using Buildship. When I create it, the IDE tries to download Gradle 2.9 from somewhere.

But I have a system-wide install of Gradle 2.12 (installed by pacman).

How can I convince Buildship to use my local Gradle installation?

Solution

  • I prematurely clicked finish. One should click next and specify (in my case) 

    /usr/share/java/gradle

    as the local installation directory.
