Hi, I am trying to write a KSP which reads Androids strings.xml file from a given path and generates some code from it. The KSP would need to re-run whenever the strings.xml file changes (i.e. someone adds a new string).
If I understand the docs on incremental processing correctly, then this is not possible because only Kotlin and Java files are tracked for changes? Is there any workaround for this problem?

sounds like something that should be done outside of KSP. a Gradle task that has strings.xml as input and produces a OutputDirectory of sources can be wired up to the main sourceset and it'll all work.

Thanks for the reply! Then I will try to do it with a gradle task 👍
