Hi, folks! I have the following code snippet presented on the screenshot and two questions related to it:
1. the srcDirs property provides Set<File!> I further use with .map(File::toPath) – I assume it’s rather necessary to .filterNotNull() before, right?
2. As I have couple of chained operations – wouldn’t it be better to convert the initial set to sequence?

[Jakub Syty]

1. It might not be necessary but it's good sanity check
2. If the srcDirs is small (and it often is) then converting that to sequence wouldn't really change that much

1. The code is a part of the Gradle plugin and pushed to God know how many projects – it has to be safe. 🙂
2. Yup, it’s a tiny list; then I’m skipping that part.
Thanks, Jakub!

won't the hardcoded seperator '/' in "META-INF/plugin.xml" make this code fail on Windows?? Or does resolve() take care of this? 🤔

[Jakub Chrzanowski]

Both File.resolve and Path.resolve resolve it properly. 🙂
