While a lot of Gradle source code runs only in the Gradle daemon, not all of it does and so, when working on some source code it is important to be aware of the runtimes in which it will run.

See [Gradle runtimes](runtimes.md) for a list of these runtimes and more details.

## Build state model

As Gradle executes, it acts on various pieces of the build definition, such as each project in the build.

A session runs the build one or more times.
For example, when continuous build is enabled, the session may run the build many times, but when it is disabled, the session will run the build once only.

The build session state is managed by the `BuildSessionState` class.
An instance is created at the start of a Gradle invocation and discarded at the end of that invocation.

For any non-trivial change, we need to be able to answer these questions:

* Why is this change done? What's the use case?
* For user facing features, what will the API look like?
* What test cases should it have? What could go wrong?
* How will it roughly be implemented? We'll happily provide code pointers to save you time.

        this.acceptedApiChanges = acceptedApiChanges ? AcceptedApiChanges.fromAcceptedChangesMap(acceptedApiChanges) : [:]

        // Tests will not supply these
        this.apiChangesJsonFile = params.get("apiChangesJsonFile") ? new File(params.get("apiChangesJsonFile") as String) : null

# can also use the constant `true` if you want to always run the actions.

# Each automation is independent of the others.  Every time one of the `on` conditions match for
# this PR, this automations will have its `if` checked to run.  In a way, the `on` conditions
# function as an implicit first `if` for every automation in the file.

# You can define multiple automations in a .cm file, but each automation name should be unique

        # If you wish to specify custom queries, you can do so here or in a config file.
        # By default, queries listed here will override any specified in a config file.
        # Prefix the list here with "+" to use these queries and those in the config file.
        # queries: ./path/to/local/query, your-org/your-repo/queries@main

## Structure

Each platform and module has its own source directory under [platforms/](../platforms).
In these source directories, you will find the Gradle projects that make up the platform or module.

The platforms and modules are defined using a DSL in [settings.gradle.kts](../settings.gradle.kts)
