I'd like to add a module-info.java to my src/main/kotlin directory, any examples of how the gradle config should be done to make the module-info.java be included?
I've tried adding module-info.java to src/main/java but then it doesn't find the kotlin classes

thanks!

In that example module-info.java is in src/main/java rather than src/main/kotlin- is there a "good" way to avoid having two source dirs?

This works:

tasks {
    val compileKotlin: KotlinCompile by tasks
    val compileJava: JavaCompile by tasks

    compileJava.source = compileKotlin.source
    compileKotlin.destinationDirectory.set(compileJava.destinationDirectory.get())
}

but my recollection is that Gradle people consider it a grievous sin to have tasks sharing inputs and outputs.

it'd be nice to have a module-info.kt, currently if you click convert to kotlin on the module-info.java, you just get an empty .kt file
