I'm trying to convert a project from maven to gradle, but I'm having trouble getting hot reloading to work the same way. I can't show the actual project so I've created two identical very simple projects. One with maven one with gradle. These projects contain two modules:
project
|____api
|____lib
The /api module contains a spring-boot app which depends on code from the /lib module
In the maven project I can change code in either of these modules and recompile either with my IDE (intellij) or with the maven cli and spring-boot-devtools will hot reload the application. However in the gradle version it only successfully hot reloads code that has changed in the /api module.
From what I gathered this seems like a classpath issue. If you run gradle or maven in debug mode it prints out the classpath it passes when it starts the application. Maven includes <project_dir>/lib/target/classes/kotlin/main. However gradle only includes <project_dir>/lib/build/libs/lib.jar
I'm very new to gradle to I might have some of the build configuration messed up. Here are the two project repo's:
