michaelyan08 / workerapi

This plugin utilizes the workerApi concept. Two plugins exist to compare the benefits : one uses workerApi and the other uses exec property of the project

Note: Upgrade to gradle version 4.1

In both plugins, we have three tasks A, B and C A /
/
B C

A depends on B and A depends on C

A prints numbers 1 to 50 B prints number 51 to 100 C prints numbers 101 to 150

*********** To run the plugins **************

For worker Api plugin: cd into workerApi directory run " gradle A"

B and C should execute in parallel and print numbers 51 to 150 in random orders then A should print numbers 1 to 50 after B and C have finished

For non worker Api plugin ( using exec) : cd to workerApi/consumer run : gradle uploadArchives

cd to ../plugin run: gradle A

Here, numbers 51 to 100 are printed in sequential order and then 1 to 50 are printed
