Hi All,

I'm new to gradle, so forgive me if my ignorance is showing. I've just been playing around with my first gradle builds, and noticed some behaviour that seems counter-intuitive. I'm not sure if it is misunderstanding on my part or not.

My case is this: I have a project that I do not want to name after the containing directory. Easy enough, I just set the project name in my build.gradle file:

name = 'foo'

I expected this to also change the name of the jar file produced by libs, backed up by the documentation which indicates archivesBaseName defaults to the project name. Unfortunately, though, the jar continues to get named after the directory. If I'm reading the gradle code correctly, it appears that archivesBaseName is set to the project name when the project is created. This I guess means that my change to the project name comes too late to affect the archives. Would it make sense to leave archivesBaseName as null and return the current value of name in that case instead? Or am I missing something?

Cheers,
Jason
