Task compileKotlin is coming before compileSolidity

[conor10]

When using the plugin in a Kotlin project, the compileKotlin task comes before compileSolidity and generateContractWrappers. This means that if you have Kotlin code trying to use the generated contracts in the same module as where they are created they will not be found.

There was a similar issue with the protobuf plugin https://github.com/google/protobuf-gradle-plugin/issues/100.

Is there a workaround for this?

This code snippet workarounds this issue:

    compileKotlin {
        kotlinOptions.jvmTarget = "1.8"
        dependsOn 'generateContractWrappers'
    }

    compileTestKotlin {
        kotlinOptions.jvmTarget = "1.8"
        dependsOn 'generateTestContractWrappers'
    }

    sourceSets {
        main.kotlin.srcDirs += "${web3j.generatedFilesBaseDir}/main/java"
        test.kotlin.srcDirs += "${web3j.generatedFilesBaseDir}/test/java"
    }
