Description
Description
When the specification changes, the gradle GenerateTask keeps returning the cached result and does not detect the changes.
This can be bypassed using --rerun-tasks, but normally this should not necessary.
openapi-generator version
6.4.0
Gradle version: 8.0.2
Command line used for generation
Automatically run the openApiGenerate on build:
compileJava.dependsOn tasks.openApiGenerate
./gradlew build
Steps to reproduce
We created a custom task, but you should be able to reproduce it by linking the openApiGenerate task to the build, change the spec and rerun the build. (this will not retrigger the generation of the java classes)
Automatically run the openApiGenerate on build:
compileJava.dependsOn tasks.openApiGenerate
Suggest a fix/enhancement
The in- and output directories do not have the right type and annotations in the GenerateTask: https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/build_cache.html#using_annotations

Research direction
Locate GenerateTask and compare its input and output directory declarations with Gradle's task annotation guidance linked in the issue. Reproduce with openApiGenerate wired to compileJava, change the specification, and run ./gradlew build; done means generation reruns without --rerun-tasks.
