I keep getting this Gradle error related to the K/JS copyResourcesJs task, when invoking gradlew build
Anyone ever seen the same?

* What went wrong:
Some problems were found with the configuration of task ':my-project:copyResourcesJs' (type 'Copy').
  - Gradle detected a problem with the following location: 'C:\Users\edoardo.luppi\IdeaProjects\client-example\proto-example\modules\my-project'.
    
    Reason: Task ':my-project:copyResourcesJs' uses this output of task ':my-project:compileKotlinJs' without declaring an explicit or implicit dependency. This can lead to incorrect results being produced, depending on what order the tasks are executed.
    
    Possible solutions:
      1. Declare task ':my-project:compileKotlinJs' as an input of ':my-project:copyResourcesJs'.
      2. Declare an explicit dependency on ':my-project:compileKotlinJs' from ':my-project:copyResourcesJs' using Task#dependsOn.
      3. Declare an explicit dependency on ':my-project:compileKotlinJs' from ':my-project:copyResourcesJs' using Task#mustRunAfter.

[hfhbd]

What's the definition of copyResourcesJs?

[Edoardo Luppi]

@hfhbd that's a good question, I was not able to get to the definition, no idea where it's defined

[Edoardo Luppi]

Literally I can't find it

[Edoardo Luppi]

AHHHH DAMN
It comes from https://github.com/goncalossilva/kotlinx-resources

[Edoardo Luppi]

Let me see if removing the plugin gets rid of the errors.

[Edoardo Luppi]

Yup. @goncalossilva FYI

[goncalossilva]

Thanks @Edoardo Luppi! Is this OSS, so I can repro?

[Edoardo Luppi]

@goncalossilva hey! Had missed the message, I'll try to repro since my project is not open sourced.

[Edoardo Luppi]

But could it be that the task simply don't specify the necessary inputs and outputs for incrementality?

[goncalossilva]

I'd appreciate it! That's what it means, but it may not happen in all setups. I'm using this in a number of different libraries at work and haven't seen it.

It may be a versioning problem. What library version are you using, and what Kotlin version?

[Edoardo Luppi]

I'm using your latest (0.4.0 iirc) and 1.9.20 Beta2

[Edoardo Luppi]

With Gradle 8.3

[goncalossilva]

I haven't tried 1.9.20 yet, but now I will. Thanks for sharing. 😊

[Edoardo Luppi]

I need to repro a K2 issue so I'll try to repro this one too next week anyway
