Affects: org.springframework:spring-context-indexer:5.2.8

Running Gradle build with --info shows that Spring Content Indexer causes full recompilation, even if totally unrelated file is changed in our project.

Full recompilation is required because org.springframework.context.index.processor.CandidateComponentsIndexer is not incremental. Analysis took 0.042 secs.

Anything I can do to help with this issue? Are there any practical reasons why we can't declare the processor as incremental?

We need to investigate our options in Gradle's Incremental annotation processing documentation.

Thanks for the report and the suggestion. The indexer has been deprecated so we won't be making further changes to it.
