Is there a way to disable a task thereby also removing any artifact it might publish? For example, if anyone applies the `java` plugin but does not want sources being published, he/she should disable the `jarSource` task, but also search for its published artifact and remove it as well. In a more general case, I guess this might be handled with the following piece of code: tasks.withType(Jar) { if (...) it.enabled = false }afterEvaluate { configurations.all { artifacts.removeAll artifacts.findAll { it instanceof ArchivePublishArtifact && !it.archiveTask.enabled }} } Are there better ways to accomplish this? If not, are there any chances for Gradle providing similar fuctionality, so that users would just need to disable/remove a task and its artifacts would be removed automatically? Thanks, |

It doesn't, and doesn't even attempt to. [This issue]([1]http://forums.gradle.org/gradle/topic...) is related. I've turned this into a problem and raised it as something to be solved. |

I had a similar, but not identical issue. In my case, the output of tasks were used as inputs for associating artifacts with configurations. My problem was that the tasks were not executed because they didn't have any input files. While the artifacts of that task would never be created, the configuration was still linked to the artifact. This caused me problems when resolving dependencies of that configuration because the artifact wouldn't exist and the consumer of the resolved artifacts didn't know whether that was a good or bad thing. My solution was to conditionally add artifacts to configurations. If the source set (or whatever task inputs) didn't exist for the task, then not only would I skip the task, I would not add any of that task's artifacts to my various configurations. I couldn't get there 100%, though, because the Java class JAR is added to various configurations (by the Java plugin I'm guessing). |

Added a patch that allows to specify an "onlyIf" closure/spec on an IvyArtifact, which will be evaluated just before the module descriptor is generated and the files to publish are determined. If the closure/spec return false, the artifact is omitted from both the descriptor and the upload. A minimal integration test is included.
