I am attempting to use a custom configuration to resolve the artifacts from another project in a multi-project build as follows:

In proj3 -
 dependencies {

     compile project(':proj1')

     addConfiguration('signer')
     signer project(':proj1')
     signer project(':proj2')
 }
     // inside task
   String path = dependencies.signer.asPath

This results in :
 Execution failed for task ':proj3:sign'.
 Cause: Not all dependencies could be resolved!

Gradle appears to be trying to resolve the artifact from proj1 using my company internal maven repo instead of from the jar it created in the build directory of proj1.

These types of project dependencies work fine for the compile configuration, but apparently the Java plugin is doing something special to make this work. It doesn't work as I expect for a custom configuration. What can I do to get this to resolve to the project jars without going to the repo?
The problem is that resolve (or the asPath method in your case) does not trigger the build of a dependent project. I assume that you get the exception, because proj2 is not build and its jar is not available. In 0.5 the solution to this is:
dependencies {
   linkConfWithTask('signer', 'myTask')
}
createTask('myTask') {
   String path = dependencies.signer.asPath
}
In 0.6 we provide a nicer solution for this scenario.

Thanks, but I already have a compile dependency on :proj1, which should make sure it is built (and I see that the artifact jar has been generated). Also, I am using the current head revision which no longer has the linkConfWithTask method on DependencyManager. Do you have any other ideas?


Just to be sure. You have proj1and proj2 as dependencies. As I understand you, Gradle is complaining about a missing proj1 dependency?

In trying to create a simple sample of the problem, I think I have figured it out.

The task proj3:myTask that was having problems depended only on the resources task in proj3. I was expecting that since I had project dependencies on proj1 and proj2 for my signer configuration, it would force the generation of these artifacts. If I add task dependencies such as myTask.dependsOn(':proj1:libs') as well, it seems to work. Perhaps this is what linkConfWithTask accomplished automatically.

How is the linkConfsWithTask functionality achieved now (since it has been removed from DependencyManager in the head revision)?
