:thinking_face: Gradle composite builds don't seem...

# gradle

[darkmoon_uk]

🤔 Gradle composite builds don't seem to be working as advertised...
I'm following the advised pattern of defining a task which 'depends on' another included task e.g.
dependsOn(gradle.includedBuild("someNamedBuild").task(":build"))
...but I get:

Could not determine the dependencies of task ':build'.
> Task with path ':build' not found in project ':someNamedBuild'.

Even though build is a task in that included build - I can even see it listed if I instead do:
dependsOn(gradle.includedBuild("someNamedBuild").task(":tasks"))
...which successfully lists the available tasks for someNamedBuild, including build.

Could you try without the : just "build"?

Not sure that's the fault, just wondering.

[no]

where is the task located? in the root of the included build?
