== Modifying a subproject path

Let's take a hypothetical project with the following structure:

[.multi-language-sample]
=====

        add(converter);
    }

    public void add(BuildInitializer descriptor) {
        if (registeredProjectDescriptors.containsKey(descriptor.getId())) {
            throw new GradleException(String.format("ProjectDescriptor with ID '%s' already registered.", descriptor.getId()));
        }

        registeredProjectDescriptors.put(descriptor.getId(), descriptor);
    }

Method <org.gradle.api.initialization.ProjectDescriptor.getName()> does not have raw return type assignable to org.gradle.api.provider.Property in (ProjectDescriptor.java:0)
Method <org.gradle.api.initialization.ProjectDescriptor.getParent()> does not have raw return type assignable to org.gradle.api.provider.Provider in (ProjectDescriptor.java:0)

}

=== 3. Define the root project name

The settings file defines your project name using the link:{javadocPath}/org/gradle/api/initialization/ProjectDescriptor.html[`rootProject.name` property]:

[source,kotlin]
----
rootProject.name = "root-project"
----

There is only one root project per build.

=== 4. Define dependency resolution strategies
