As a very new contributor, how can I debug the internals of a Gradle bin file? For example, I want to be able to set breakpoints within the subproject(s) that the issue involves

For my own problem solving and learning I am trying to log from Gradle itself, currently a quick test via
Logging.getLogger(DefaultConfiguration.class).log(<http://LogLevel.INFO|LogLevel.INFO>, "This is a test");
I then rebuild the Gradle distro, as described in CONTRIBUTING.md, via
./gradlew install -Pgradle_installPath=/tmp/gradle-test
and use that distribution in my test project. I run that with
/tmp/gradle-test/bin/gradle --console verbose --debug <some task>
But I don't see any logging messages that I added. Granted, it could be the code path I am logging from is not taken but I just wanted to check that I'm doing the logging above (via
.getLogger()
) correctly before diving in too deep. I can't find any docs about how to do logging from within Gradle itself

Hi ! I am trying to build a local build from one of the previous revision tags as mentioned in the Contribution.md. But I am facing some errors that I am not aware how to fix at the moment. Can anyone please help me with what I am doing wrong? These are the logs i get whenever i try to run commands.

There seem to be two problems:1. That revision uses some nightly for wrapper that doesn’t exist anymore. I suggest you use some “close enough” released version, maybe 6.8 or some 6.7.x (released versions can be found here https://services.gradle.org/distributions/) 2. Kotlin-dsl cant be found in
kotlin-eap
repo or Gradle plugin repo for some reason. Maybe you should add some other repo to build logic or smth like that, not sure Fun with remote resources 🙂

When apply dependency verification to our builds the question came up if certain types of checksums could be forbidden. that would ease our process quite a bit and might be a good additional feature. Does this sound as it would make sense to you to make allowed checksum types configurable?

If you are looking to do some contributing this month (and want some swag) we just pushed all the Configuration Cache issues to the public board. https://github.com/orgs/gradle/projects/43/views/1

What kind of specs are needed to work with intelliJ to contribute to Gradle? I am making changes to the snippets to make it configuration cache compatible and the Kotlin code completion/highlighting doesn't work on my machine. Wondering if this is a memory limitation or some quirk with intelliJ?

I’m taking a stab at issue 21803 of Configuration Cache Hackathon. However, I’m unable to reproduce the test failures. I have gone through the workflow & FAQ documentation and I see the following log:
0 problems were found storing the configuration cache.

See the complete report at file:///Users/myusername/CD/gradle/build/reports/configuration-cache/5ivt49antbai1kfb8a5y3bxrs/3b6067qhgwn5n39a8z4ha05pg/configuration-cache-report.html

I am looking to add a few examples to the Gradle user guid. Am I allowed to contribute here as a non-gradle member ? Ref: https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/userguide.html
