Descrizione

Plugin version 2.17.0

Gradle version 8.14

JDK version 17

(Optional) Kotlin and Kotlin Gradle Plugin (KGP) version 2.1.20

Describe the bug Kotlin optimizes out unreachable bytecode like if (false) so if a usage of a dependency is inside of that block, DAGP considers it unused and will remove it. Removing it causes a compilation failure.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. In the attached project, :app:fixDependencies removes the dependency on :utils
  2. Running :app:assemble will have a compilation error because the dependency was removed

Expected behavior The :utils dependency should not be removed by fixDependencies and should be reported in build health as being used.
