I can't get my Gradle DSL integration to work, IDEA doesn't understand that I want to have several src-filders. Any ideas? This is how my gradle.build.kts looks like, that lives on the root of my project:

plugins {
    kotlin("jvm") version "1.3.72"
}

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath(kotlin("gradle-plugin", version = "1.3.72"))
    }
}

sourceSets.main {
    java.srcDirs("components/logger/src",
                 "components/user/src")
}

Enable the idea plugin:

plugins {
  idea
}

That usually helps for me

I aded that line + changed from "java.srcDirs" to "kotlin.srcDirs". The problem now is that "srcDirs" is marked red in IDEA.

I just tried it, it worked fine here in a kts gradle I have

It works now. I had te reinstall gradle to use 6.5. Thanks!

you may want to consider creating a multi project: https://github.com/gradle/kotlin-dsl-samples/tree/master/samples/multi-kotlin-project

I've done something similar to that example with a "core" project, a "cli" project, and a "webapp" project

That was awesome, thanks!
