Circular dependency between tasks

[DAQEM]

Syncing and building the projects works just fine, but when I try to run a client (Fabric, Forge or Quilt), I get the following error:

3:42:56 PM: Executing ':Quilt:classes'...

> Configure project :Common
Quilt Loom: 0.12.40

> Configure project :Fabric
Fabric Loom: 0.12.56

> Configure project :Quilt
Quilt Loom: 0.12.40

How to reproduce:

• Download the files and open them using Intellij.
• Wait for it to sync and download all the dependencies.
• Generate the runs for forge.
• Try to run any of the clients.

Removing compileOnly project(":Common") from the Quilt build.gradle fixed the issue for me. Everything seems to work just fine. Syncing, Building and running a client.

I don't have that much knowledge of Gradle and multiloader setups, but I don't think this is the best way to fix it. Any ideas how to fix it with a different solution?

I can't replicate this on my side. I downloaded the repo, imported into IntelliJ, set the project sdk to 17 as well as configured gradle to use that, refreshed again, genIntelliJ runs and both Forge and Fabric ran fine. If you remove compileOnly project(":Common") from the Quilt build.gradle you should stop having access to Common classes in the Quilt module... so no, that shouldn't be a great solution...

[DAQEM]

Yeah that's exactly what I did as well. Very strange. Thanks for checking tho. I'll let you know when I find the solution.

https://github.com/jaredlll08/MultiLoader-Template/issues/17 I've seen other people get this but haven't been able to encounter it myself, maybe applying that fixes it? I'm thinking of probably switching the common module to VanillaGradle since loom in common comes with quite a bit of issues in a ML Environment. I'm starting to think that having parchment is not that worth it.
