Why is this an issue?

settings.gradle.kts or settings.gradle are used to define general project properties.

It is a good practice to specify the rootProject.name property to set your project name and avoid inconsistencies. By default, Gradle uses the project directory name as the project name and this is not guaranteed to always be the desired behavior.

How to fix it

Add the rootProject.name property to the Gradle settings file (i.e. settings.gradle.kts or settings.gradle)

Code examples

Noncompliant code example

include("module1", "module2")

Compliant solution

rootProject.name = "myProject"
include("module1", "module2")
