Help with accessing resource form Checkstyle plugin

Help/Discuss
1

I’m trying to extend the Checkstyle plugin with HTML report generation, see my work-in-progress at [1]. In order to do so, I need to transform the XML report via an XSL to HTML. I’d like to bundle that XSL file as a resource with the gradle-code-quality JAR. But no matter what I do, I’m unable to make the ant.xslt task find the XSL resource [2]. I’ve added the XSL in multiple places, and tried the various attributes to javaresource, still no luck.

Any hint how to achieve that?

Thanks!
