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:
- In the attached project,
:app:fixDependenciesremoves the dependency on:utils - Running
:app:assemblewill 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.
