A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

Something I've been noticing since Kotlin 1.6.20 in IJ is that building the project now seems to use Ant rather than Gradle, even though the project's build script is `build.gradle.kts`. Why is that?

This is strange. Can you please file an issue at <https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issues/KTIJ> with a sample project and steps to reproduce?

There's already an issues filed with the same problem I'm having: <https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-283478/IntelliJ-often-changes-gradle-build-test-runner-to-use-IntelliJ-|IDEA-283478>.

When I'm working with a Compose Desktop project, it also manifests itself in this problem that I'm also having: <https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KTIJ-21077/Dependency-matrix-does-not-work-with-Jetpack-compose-multiplatfo|KTIJ-21077>.

Changing the `delegatedBuild` option in the project's `gradle.xml` file to `true` fixes both problems.

I've disabled all the plugins suggested in IDEA-283478 and the problem is still happening if I don't manually force the `delegatedBuild` option. It's not a Kotlin problem. It happens with a Java project.

I'll keep digging and amend the issues with what I find.
