We have a multi-project build, using ‘master’ as root project, with this layout:
sub_project1/
sub_project2/
master/
settings.gradle
build.gradle
gradle.properties
gradlew
We sometimes run tasks in sub-projects, like this:
sub_project1$ ../master/gradlew myTask
When doing this, regular Gradle properties in ‘master/gradle.properties’ are parsed just fine, but the command line properties like ‘org.gradle.daemon=true’ are ignored.
Is that a bug or by design?
It causes us some inconvenience when wanting to set the default command line properties. We have about 50 sub-projects, so duplicating ‘gradle.properties’ in each project is not an option.
