Hello all, I would like to write a Gradle plugin that access to developer's code. For example, If I write a class

Foo

in my Kotlin project and apply my plugin, I would like to get this compiled class

Foo

. Any hint regarding the topic?

it depends what you mean by "get", do you mean the source code, the compiled code for static analysis or transforms, or to actually load it into the classpath

I think more about the compiled code

assuming a standard setup where it is in the main sourceset, you can find it in

files(tasks.named("compileKotlin")).asFileTree

ok, thanks for your answer

that's going to be much more complicated. you need to load the class and probably the entire

runtimeClasspath

. I'm not very familiar with that myself so you'll have to ask someone else

ok, thanks 👍

Generally you can write something like anotation processor (you can have a look on https://github.com/Foso/MpApt or if you need a more power, compiler plugin can be also considered
