A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

so far I have
```
jar {
    archiveName = "onboarding.jar"

    manifest {
        attributes(
            "Class-Path" to ???
            "Main-Class" to "com.mything.MainKt"
        )
    }
}
```

but `configurations.compile.collect...` isn’t a thing in the Kotlin DSL

The Kotlin equivalent of the Groovy `.collect {}` is `.map {}`.

this should do:
```
configurations.compile.get().map { it.name }.joinToString(" ")
```
can also be simplified to:
```
configurations.compile.get().joinToString(" ") { it.name }
```

Excellent! The latter example works perfect. Thank you a ton! :smile:

You probably don’t want to resolve the `compile` configuration though.

The `runtimeClasspath` configuration sounds like a better fit for your use case

`compile` is a bucket where you declare compile time dependencies
`runtimeClasspath` represent the resolveable *runtime* classpath
