how do i convert this into a valid kotlin compilable package

(A.A.kt so it can be imported in build.gradle.kts via import A.A so i can test if it actually compiled in gradle as to how it should be converted from gradle to a kotlinc-jvm compilable package)

A/A.kt

package A
import A.B.B

fun main() {
    B().main()
}

A/B/B.kt

package A.B

class B {
    fun main() {
        println("hello")
    }
}

$ kotlinc-jvm -include-runtime -d main.jar A/A.kt -classpath ./
A/A.kt:2:12: error: unresolved reference: B
import A.B.B
           ^
A/A.kt:6:9: error: unresolved reference: B
        B().main()
        ^

If you want to use that A class in your build.gradle.kts, compile it as a part of buildSrc special project in your project.

You can read more about buildSrc here: https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/organizing_gradle_projects.html#sec:build_sources

how it should be converted from gradle to a kotlinc-jvm compilable package

And if you're looking for the options gradle starts kotlinc with, you can pass -d option to gradle and then search for the compileKotlin taks execution in logs. But be prepared that the log will be huge.
