Hello there,

So I have multiple mods in a single workspace that require a few dependencies. If I don't try and package in the dependencies, the mod compiles fine. However, when I uncomment the

from configurations.compile.collect { it.isDirectory() ? it : zipTree(it) }

line for packing in the dependencies, I get a ton of compile errors that are all complaining of minecraft packages that don't exist. Here is the build.gradle:

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
        maven {
            name = "forge"
            url = "http://files.minecraftforge.net/maven"
        }
        maven {
            name = "sonatype"
            url = "https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/"
        }
    }
    dependencies {
        classpath 'net.minecraftforge.gradle:ForgeGradle:1.2-SNAPSHOT'
    }
}
apply plugin: 'forge'

version = "1.7.2-2.1.3"
group= "" // http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-naming-conventions.html
archivesBaseName = "Minestrappolation"
sourceSets.main.java{srcDirs project.projectDir.getPath() include("sobiohazardous/**")}
sourceSets.main.resources{srcDirs project.projectDir.getPath() include("assets/**")}

sourceCompatibility = 1.7
targetCompatibility = 1.7

minecraft {
    version = "1.7.2-10.12.1.1061"
  
if(file('../run').exists()) {
	assetDir = "../run/assets/"
} else {
	assetDir = "eclipse/assets"
}
}

dependencies {
compile fileTree(dir:'dependencies',include:'*.zip')
}

processResources {
    // copy everything else, thats not mcmod.info
    from(project.sourceSets.main.resources.srcDirs) {
        include("*.png", "*.lang")
    }
}

task unJar(type:Copy, dependsOn:'build')
unJar{
    from zipTree(jar.archivePath)
    into 'build/unjar'
}

jar {
    //Keep the jar as clean as possible
    includeEmptyDirs = false
//package dependencies in.
from configurations.compile.collect { it.isDirectory() ? it : zipTree(it) }
}

task buildAPI(type:Jar, dependsOn:'unJar')
buildAPI{
    archiveName = "MAPI" + "-" + minecraft.version + "-" + "1.3.1" +"." + extension
    from 'build/unjar'
    include('assets/**', 'sobiohazardous/minestrappolation/api/**')
    from('api_info'){
    include('mcmod.info')
    // replace version and mcversion
    expand([version:version, mcversion:minecraft.version])
    }
}

task buildEO(type:Jar, dependsOn:'unJar')
buildEO{
    archiveName = "Extrapolated Ores" + "-" + minecraft.version + "-" + "1.5.1" +"." + extension
    from 'build/unjar'
    include('assets/**', 'sobiohazardous/minestrappolation/extraores/**')
    from('eo_info'){
        include('mcmod.info')
        // replace version and mcversion
        expand([version:version, mcversion:minecraft.version])
    }
}

task buildED(type:Jar, dependsOn:'unJar')
buildED{
    archiveName = "Extrapolated Decor" + "-" + minecraft.version + "-" + "1.4.2" +"." + extension
    from 'build/unjar'
    include('assets/**', 'sobiohazardous/minestrappolation/extradecor/**')
    from('ed_info'){
        include('mcmod.info')
        // replace version and mcversion
        expand([version:version, mcversion:minecraft.version])
    }
}

task buildEMD(type:Jar, dependsOn:'unJar')
buildEMD{
    archiveName = "Extrapolated Mob Drops" + "-" + minecraft.version + "-" + "1.0" +"." + extension
    from 'build/unjar'
    include('assets/**', 'sobiohazardous/minestrappolation/extramobdrops/**')
    from('emd_info'){
        include('mcmod.info')
        // replace version and mcversion
        expand([version:version, mcversion:minecraft.version])
    }
}

task buildEE(type:Jar, dependsOn:'unJar')
buildEE{
    archiveName = "Extrapolated Enviroments Ores" + "-" + minecraft.version + "-" + "1.0" +"." + extension
    from 'build/unjar'
    include('assets/**', 'sobiohazardous/minestrappolation/extraenviroments/**')
    from('ee_info'){
        include('mcmod.info')
        // replace version and mcversion
        expand([version:version, mcversion:minecraft.version])
    }
}
task buildPack(dependsOn:['buildAPI','buildEO','buildED'])
task buildAll(dependsOn:['buildAPI','buildEO','buildED', 'buildEMD', 'buildEE'])

Anyone? I know, this an unusual problem

can we see the compile errors?
