Those other tasks will only execute if their direct inputs have changed. So, if processResources is generating the same output each time, even though the properties have changed, then the other tasks will not execute. Perhaps you could start by checking the processResources is actually generating different content in its output files when the properties change (that the content changes, not just that the timestamp changes). -- Adam Murdoch Gradle Developer http://www.gradle.org CTO, Gradle Inc. - Gradle Training, Support, Consulting http://www.gradle.biz
