IntelliJ IDEA and Gradle: Why there are 3 modules per sub-module?

Question

I am rather confused by IntelliJ IDEA\'s gradle integration and the mapping of gradle subprojects to IDEA\'s modules.

• Why are there 3 modules for every gradle subp

Answer 1

If you want to just disable this option for a previously imported project you can do so by editing idea gradle configuration file located in .idea/gradle.xml.

Add this line that sets resolveModulePerSourceSet to false:

  ...
  
    
      
        ...
        
      
    
  

And then refresh the gradle project.
