Issue: <https://github.com/gradle/gradle/issues/16535>

I'm curious how do you use the output afterwards? Something like
```doLast {
  println(standardOutput.toString())
}```
? Or a `TaskProvider.map { }`? I see that the `Exec` javadoc suggests using `ext`, but that wouldn't work with CC either.

looks using this fixes the issue 

```doLast {
    exec {
        …
    }
}```

but I am not sure about how the build cache is then unused 

`exec` inside doLast is not configuration-cache compatible, because it is a method of `Project` and causes the latter to be captured in the action closure.
I think you can use `doFirst` to initialize `standardOutput` , similar to the workaround provided in <https://github.com/gradle/gradle/issues/16535#issuecomment-1748786024>

Oh, the task failed with other issue that is fixed in 8.3, but we can’t update yet. So probably didn’t get the issue you mentioned
