CsvReportRenderer broken for Gradle 7

[windmueller]

When using Gradle 7.0 (currently rc-2), the CsvReportRenderer causes some errors:

Some problems were found with the configuration of task ':generateLicenseReport' (type 'CacheableReportTask').
  - Type 'CacheableReportTask' property 'config.cache.$0.filename' is missing an input or output annotation.
    
    Reason: A property without annotation isn't considered during up-to-date checking.
    
    Possible solutions:
      1. Add an input or output annotation.
      2. Mark it as @Internal.
    
    Please refer to https://docs.gradle.org/7.0-rc-2/userguide/validation_problems.html#missing_annotation for more details about this problem.

This error is repeated for other properties like includeHeaderLine and quote.

Hi there, I am noticing this also with Gradle 7.0 (not rc):

We are getting the same problem log with annotations missing in CacheableReport

Is there a chance to publish a new release compatible with Gradle 7, @jk1 ? Do you maybe want help with that?

This is what I use as workaround:

import com.github.jk1.license.render.ReportRenderer
import com.github.jk1.license.render.CsvReportRenderer
import com.github.jk1.license.ProjectData

/*
    workaround for https://github.com/jk1/Gradle-License-Report/issues/203 in Version 1.15
    error message:
        Some problems were found with the configuration of task ':generateLicenseReport' (type 'CacheableReportTask').
        - Type 'com.github.jk1.license.task.CacheableReportTask' property 'config.cache.$0.filename' is missing an input or output annotation.
   
    expected code: renderers = [new CsvReportRenderer()]
 */
renderers = [new ReportRenderer() {
    @Override
    void render(ProjectData data) {
        new CsvReportRenderer().render(data)
    }
}]

Hi all.

I'm terribly sorry I was unable to take care of the plugin for some time due to a huge workload.
Will start working on making it Gradle 7.X ready shortly.

Tried to ./gradlew build on a checkout, but failed with:

> Task :licenseMain FAILED

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
Some problems were found with the configuration of task ':licenseMain' (type 'LicenseCheck').
  - In plugin 'com.github.hierynomus.license-base' type 'com.hierynomus.gradle.license.tasks.LicenseCheck' property 'URI' is missing an input or output annotation.
    
    Reason: A property without annotation isn't considered during up-to-date checking.
    
    Possible solutions:
      1. Add an input or output annotation.
      2. Mark it as @Internal.

Tried also to update the version of the plugin com.github.hierynomus.license to 0.16.1, it fixed the warning on LicenseCheck task, but the test fails

Hi @andsel,

com.github.hierynomus.license package does look as it belongs to some other plugin, https://github.com/hierynomus/license-gradle-plugin I suppose.

Thank you all for waiting.
The 2.0 plugin version should have it resolved. Please give it a try and let me know if it works for you.
