Description
When utilizing "includeBuild" in the settings.gradle file, the IDE no longer recognizes java imports/objects from the included project. Compiling in gradle via the command line continues to work as expected.
Environment
- Operating System: Windows
- JDK version: 1.8/17
- Visual Studio Code version: 1.88.1
- Java extension version: 1.29
Steps To Reproduce
- Run
gradle initto generate a java library called 'inc1' - Run
gradle initto generate a java library called 'inc2' - Add 'group="inc2"' to inc2 build.gradle
- Add
includeBuild '..\\inc2'to the inc1 settings.gradle file - Add
implementation "inc2:lib:1.0.0"to inc1 build.gradle dependencies - Create class Lib2.java in the inc2 project
- Import and instantiate the Lib2 object in the inc1 project
- Run
gradle assemblein inc1 and verify success - Open inc1 in VSCode and verify it can not locate the Lib2 object
Current Result
The Lib2 import cannot be resolved in VSCode
Expected Result
The Lib2 import can be resolved in VSCode

Research direction
Start with the linked sample project and reproduce the issue using inc1/settings.gradle, inc1/build.gradle, and the included inc2 project; compare successful gradle assemble output with VS Code's unresolved Lib2.java import. Trace the Java extension's handling of the includeBuild dependency, and consider the issue done when the Lib2 import resolves in VS Code while the Gradle build still succeeds.
