I think source generation is slightly different in that it's likely to be more
complex. I am also not sure what benefit it would have over…
sourceSets {
main {
srcDir someGenerationTask.outputs.files
}
}
I have to admit that I don't know how this plays with directories vs files.
That is, how the output of a task needs to be structured to spit out a root
“srcDir”.
