Running with --dot-output failed

Hi, I tried to generate the dot graph, but got

Please provide more information on your environment and settings. The output of gradle --version is a good start.

I also ran with --debug, see the attached file

debug-log.txt

And thanks for the quick response! Much appreciated!

I think the problem is here

https://github.com/kordamp/jdeps-gradle-plugin/blob/d927d45f00075b0fe58eecf8014504d6026ae023/src/main/groovy/org/kordamp/gradle/plugin/jdeps/tasks/JDepsReportTask.groovy#L342-L344

Should use @InputFile instead of @Input.

Thanks for quick fix, Andres. Much appreciated.

[aalmiray]

@rbrunet you are going to like the next trick: releasing v0.18.0 in a few minutes.

[rbrunet]

Just tested it and confirm it works. It produced a .dot file with the digraph description that can then be seen for example with https://dreampuf.github.io/GraphvizOnline

Thanks!
