Interface SourceSet

public interface SourceSet

A SourceSet represents a logical group of Java source and resources.

See the example below how SourceSet 'main' is accessed and how the SourceDirectorySet 'java' is configured to exclude some package from compilation.

 apply plugin: 'java'

 sourceSets {
   main {
     java {
       exclude 'some/unwanted/package/**'
     }
   }
 }
 

MAIN_SOURCE_SET_NAME

static final String MAIN_SOURCE_SET_NAME

The name of the main source set.

See Also:

Constant Field Values

TEST_SOURCE_SET_NAME

static final String TEST_SOURCE_SET_NAME

The name of the test source set.

See Also:

Constant Field Values

getName

String getName()

Returns the name of this source set.

Returns:

The name. Never returns null.

getCompileClasspath

FileCollection getCompileClasspath()

Returns the classpath used to compile this source.

Returns:

The classpath. Never returns null.

setCompileClasspath

void setCompileClasspath(FileCollection classpath)

Sets the classpath used to compile this source.

Parameters:

classpath - The classpath. Should not be null.

getRuntimeClasspath

FileCollection getRuntimeClasspath()

Returns the classpath used to execute this source.

Returns:

The classpath. Never returns null.

setRuntimeClasspath

void setRuntimeClasspath(FileCollection classpath)

Sets the classpath used to execute this source.

Parameters:

classpath - The classpath. Should not be null.

getClassesDir

@Deprecated
File getClassesDir()

Deprecated. Use getOutput().getClassesDir() instead.

Returns the directory to assemble the compiled classes into.

Returns:

The classes dir. Never returns null.

setClassesDir

@Deprecated
void setClassesDir(File classesDir)

Deprecated. Use getOutput().setClassesDir() instead.

Sets the directory to assemble the compiled classes into.

Parameters:

classesDir - the classes dir. Should not be null.

getClasses

@Deprecated
SourceSetOutput getClasses()

Deprecated. Use getOutput() instead.

Returns SourceSetOutput that extends FileCollection which means that it provides all output directories (compiled classes, processed resources, etc.)

Provides a way to configure the default output dirs and specify additional output dirs - see SourceSetOutput

Returns:

The output dirs, as a SourceSetOutput.

getOutput

SourceSetOutput getOutput()

SourceSetOutput is a FileCollection of all output directories (compiled classes, processed resources, etc.) and it provides means configure the default output dirs and register additional output dirs. See examples in SourceSetOutput

Returns:

The output dirs, as a SourceSetOutput.

compiledBy

SourceSet compiledBy(Object... taskPaths)

Registers a set of tasks which are responsible for compiling this source set into the classes directory. The paths are evaluated as for Task.dependsOn(Object...).

Parameters:

taskPaths - The tasks which compile this source set.

Returns:

this

getResources

SourceDirectorySet getResources()

Returns the non-Java resources which are to be copied into the class output directory.

Returns:

the resources. Never returns null.

resources

SourceSet resources(Closure configureClosure)

Configures the non-Java resources for this set.

The given closure is used to configure the SourceDirectorySet which contains the resources.

Parameters:

configureClosure - The closure to use to configure the resources.

Returns:

this

getJava

SourceDirectorySet getJava()

Returns the Java source which is to be compiled by the Java compiler into the class output directory.

the Java source. Never returns null.

java

SourceSet java(Closure configureClosure)

The given closure is used to configure the SourceDirectorySet which contains the Java source.

Parameters:

configureClosure - The closure to use to configure the Java source.

Returns:

this

getAllJava

SourceDirectorySet getAllJava()
