The finalizedBy task will not be executed directly after the task which specified it.
Hier an example and the output from it:
Example
class TestTask extends DefaultTask {
TestTask() {
project.task(name + "Test")
finalizedBy name + "Test"
}
}
task aaa (type: TestTask)
task bbb (type: TestTask)
task prepare
project.afterEvaluate {
it.tasks.each { task ->
task.shouldRunAfter 'prepare'
}
}
task groupTask {
dependsOn prepare, aaa, bbb
}
Output
c:/gradle-test>gradle groupTask
:prepare UP-TO-DATE
:aaa UP-TO-DATE
:bbb UP-TO-DATE
:bbbTest UP-TO-DATE
:aaaTest UP-TO-DATE
:groupTask UP-TO-DATE
We can see that aaaTest
will not be executed directly after aaa
.
In my opinion the finalizedBy task should always get executed after the tasks which specified it.
