Is it possible to exclude package with a specific name from the build?

[K Merle]

For example:

sourceSets {
    main {
        java {
            srcDir 'src'
            exclude '**/someName/**'
        }
    }
}

This package repeats through the app,.

Various options for exclusions are documented here,

[Chris Lee]

those are dependency exclusions; not clear if that is what you require. Excluding packages is unusual - perhaps that package should be a separate module,.

Thank you. I am looking for a solutions, having separate build directory is certainly one of them

[Chris Lee]

perhaps look at creating a separate sub-project for this code, allowing it to be cleanly separated and distributed if-and-when needed.
