I've a multi-module project using KSP version 1.8....

# ksp

[Gaurav Dhingra]

I've a multi-module project using KSP version 1.8.10-1.0.9 and it would be helpful if someone can help me with disabling the task of code-generation in the tests sub-directory of the build directory.

This is roughly the structure of the project:

myProject
    - api
    - engine
    - methods
        - build.gradle.kts

dependencies {
implementation(project(":engine"))
implementation(project(":methodsProcessor"))

testImplementation(kotlin("test"))
testImplementation(testFixtures(project(":engine")))

testImplementation("org.junit.jupiterjunit jupiter params5.8.2")

ksp(project(":methodsProcessor"))
}

- build
            - generated
                - ksp
                    - main
                        - kotlin
                            - methods
                                - PublicMethods.kt

                    - test   ##  I don't want this directory to be created at all
                        - kotlin
                            - methods
                                - PublicMethods.kt
    - methodsProcessor
        - build.gradle.kts (contents below)

dependencies {
implementation(libs.ksp.api)
}

- src.main.kotlin.processor.MethodsProcessor
            ## this file has a SymbolProcessor which creates a new file (PublicMethods.kt) in
            ## `methods/build/generated/ksp/main/kotlin/methods` &
            ## `methods/build/generated/ksp/test/kotlin/methods` (THIS I would like not to be created)
    - build.gradle.kts
    - settings.gradle.kts

rootProject.name = "myProject"

include("engine")
include("methods")
include("api")
include("methodsProcessor")

val kotlinVersion: String by settings
val kspVersion: String by settings

pluginManagement {
plugins {
// For some reason the global variables are not accessible here
val kotlinVersion: String by settings
val kspVersion: String by settings
kotlin("jvm") version kotlinVersion
kotlin("plugin.jpa") version kotlinVersion
kotlin("plugin.spring") version kotlinVersion
id("com.google.devtools.ksp") version kspVersion
}
}

dependencyResolutionManagement {
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
versionCatalogs {
create("libs") {
library("ksp-api", "com.google.devtools.kspsymbol processing api$kspVersion")
}
}
}

```

When I run `./gradlew build` for my project, the output on the terminal looks like:
```> Task :api:openApiGenerate

> Task :methods:kspKotlin
w: [ksp] hello world

Daemon will be stopped at the end of the build after running out of JVM memory

> Task :methods:kspTestKotlin
w: [ksp] hello world

So, the second task that you see, i.e. :methods:kspTestKotlin is something I don't to it to run.

I've already tried having the below configuration in `methods.build.gradle.kts`:

ksp {
    tasks.named("kspTestKotlin") {
        enabled = false
    }
}

which raises the error saying, there is no task named "kspTestKotlin", while building my project.
