use maven's pom.xml for gradle build dependencies?

Question

My question is fairly simple. I have a maven java project and I would like to build it with gradle. currently I have a pom.xml file where I'm managing dependencies, as well as a build.gradle file where I list each of these dependencies as:

// build.gradle file:
dependencies {
     compile (
        <some groupId>:<some artifactId>:<some version>,
        etc.
    )
}

I'd really like to avoid this redundancy but I do not see any way to have the build.gradle file integrate pom.xml into it's dependencies. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

You just maintain your pom.xml with all your latest dependencies. At last run >gradle init command to convert your latest pom into build.gradle. So this will copy all dependencies from pom.xml file to build.gragle.
