[gradle] Accessing files in build directory

[provide a description of the issue]

Environment

• Operating System: macOS Sierra
• JDK version: JDK 8
• Visual Studio Code version: 1.15
• Java extension version: 0.8.0

Steps To Reproduce

I track a build number using a text file in the build project directory, e.g., 'build.num'

First, the file can't be found using this code:

def buildNumber = new File("build.num").text.toInteger() + 1

It looks like gradle isn't being run in the same directory as the build.gradle file. So I changed the code to this:

def buildNumber = new File("${projectDir}/build.num").text.toInteger() + 1

Now the 'build.num' file is being found. The same problem exists when referencing any files from a relative location.

Current Result

File Not Found

Expected Result

Build should work the same as if running it from the build directory.

Additional Informations

Commencez par reproduire le build Gradle avec le chemin relatif build.num et comparez-le avec la forme ${projectDir}/build.num. Examinez comment la VS Code Java extension lance Gradle et vérifiez que le correctif permet de résoudre les chemins relatifs depuis le répertoire de build sans casser les autres builds.
