Does the gradle file system watcher work for subprojects?

Question

I recently splitted our micornaut project in seperate module, but since then the continous build doe s not work anymore for the subprojects. But changes in the root project will still be detected.

The build.grade of the root project looks like this:

plugins {
    id 'java'
    id "com.github.johnrengelman.shadow" version "7.0.0"
    id "io.micronaut.application" version "3.6.5"
}

version = "0.1"
group = "com.example"

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

configurations {
    compile
}

micronaut {
    runtime("netty")
    testRuntime("junit5")
    processing {
        incremental(true)
        annotations("*")
    }
}

dependencies {
    implementation project(':child1')
    implementation project(':child2')
}

And a child build.gradle like this:

plugins {
    id 'java'
    id 'io.micronaut.library'
}

group 'com.example'
version '0.1'

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
   implementation project(":child1")
}

The gradle.properties like this:

org.gradle.jvmargs='-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8'
org.gradle.caching=true
org.gradle.vfs.verbose=true
org.gradle.vfs.watch=true
micronautVersion=3.7.4
version=7.4.0

I start the application with *gradle run -t. In settings.gradle are all subprojects included. Any ideas how to fix this?

EDIT: Output of gradle run --dry-run :

Deprecated Gradle features were used in this build, making it incompatible with Gradle 8.0.

You can use '--warning-mode all' to show the individual deprecation warnings and determine if they come from your own scripts or plugins.

See https://docs.gradle.org/7.4.2/userguide/command_line_interface.html#sec:command_line_warnings

A good way to debug why tasks may not be running as you expect them to, is to look at `gradle --dry-run`. This will show you what the order is of the tasks that gradle will execute. So for you it would be: `gradle run --dry-run`. Do you have an idea where the `run` task comes from? Did you make it yourself or is it imported from some plugin? — Koedlt, Nov 29 '22 at 15:35
Interesting, the project I'm working on has no `run` gradle task, so I would not guess it to be a default gradle task. Which version of gradle are you on? And what is the output of `gradle run --dry-run`? — Koedlt, Nov 30 '22 at 20:17
@Koedlt Im using 7.4.2 Dry run shows me that gradle skips all subproject while executing the task. Die command output starts with `Starting a Gradle Daemon, 1 incompatible and 1 stopped Daemons could not be reused, use --status for details ` — Zonko, Dec 01 '22 at 08:31
Can you add the full output of `gradle run --dry-run` to the question? That first line is not enough info to work with. — Koedlt, Dec 05 '22 at 10:19
