We have several generated res folder by different tasks. It's better to not
have different task dump files in the same res folder in case one overwrite
a file created by another task (this will trigger an error in the res
merger instead of silently overwriting the res file with non-deterministic
behavior depending on which task runs last).
So there isn't a single generated task. Are you trying to create a new
generated res folder for your own generated resources?
In that case, use the variant.dirName as I mention in the other thread.
You will also need to add the res folder manually to the sourceset of the
variant.
this should work:
project.android.sourceSets.maybeCreate(variant.name) {
res {
srcDirs = [...]
}
}
