title: Setting the Resource Folder in a Java Gradle project
body: <p>I am trying to set up a Gradle Java project, but for some reason I can't seem to register the resources folder with the build. Whenever I try to write to a file, it writes to the project root and not the resources folder.</p>
  
  <p>My project directory is as follows:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>src
  
  <ul>
  <li>main
  
  <ul>
  <li>java</li>
  <li>resources</li>
  </ul></li>
  </ul></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Here is my build.gradle file</p>
  
  <pre><code>apply plugin: 'java'
  apply plugin: 'application'
  
  repositories {
          mavenCentral()
  }
  
  mainClassName='Test'
  
  
  sourceSets {
          main {
                  java {
                          srcDirs= ["src/main/java"]
                  }
                  resources {
                          srcDirs= ["src/main/resources"]
                  }
          }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And here is my Test.java that I'm using to see if I can access the resources folder</p>
  
  <pre><code>import java.io.*;
  
  public class Test {
  
          public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
  
                  FileWriter writer = new FileWriter(new File("Test.txt"));
                  writer.write("Test");
                  writer.close();
  
          }
  
  }
  </code></pre>
