Changes in .editorconfig file are ignored on subsequent reruns

[G00fY2]

After updating to ktlint 0.41.0 I get:

A failure occurred while executing org.jlleitschuh.gradle.ktlint.worker.KtLintWorkAction
   java.lang.RuntimeException: Unexpected imports layout: "*,java.**,javax.**,kotlin.**,^"

I know about the changes made regarding pinterest/ktlint#1018 and tried different configurations in my .editorconfig. But non of these seems to work:

kotlin_imports_layout=idea
ij_kotlin_imports_layout=*
ij_kotlin_imports_layout=*,java.,javax.,kotlin.**,^

Not sure if this is an incompatibility with the plugin oder a general ktlint issue.

Plugin Version: 10.0.0
Ktlint Version: 0.41.0
Gradle Version: 6.8.3
Android Studio: 4.1.2

What is your ktlint { .. } configuration in Gradle and whole .editorconfig content?

Would be nice to create some project that reproduces the issue.

Thats the project where I get this issue: https://github.com/G00fY2/quickie

@G00fY2 I've just tried your project, and it works fine for me. You probably ran into some internal caching of ktlint, hence were facing the old error, even though the imports_layout has been changed to the correct one.

Just to reinforce, this is how it should be defined in the .editorconfig to comply with IDEA and ktlint:

ij_kotlin_imports_layout=*,java.**,javax.**,kotlin.**,^

and then ./gradlew ktlintCheck --rerun-tasks to make sure you're not hitting the invalid cache.

[G00fY2]

Hmm, yeah you are right. Has to be some caching issue. I just updated everything and the CI builds run fine.

I also used the correct import regex (copy and pasted it from ktlint readme), not sure why the one in my description is different.

Thanks! And sorry for bringing this up.

[Tapchicoma]

Actually it is a bug in the plugin and how it handles KtLint .editorconfig cache. Should be fixed for the next release.

[Tapchicoma]

Just FYI: as workaround you have to stop Gradle daemon (so it will kill workers) after any .editorconfig changes.

Thanks @Tapchicoma

⚠️ For anyone facing an issue that ktlint ignores any changes in .editorconfig -> run ./gradlew --stop and then rerun ktlint task.

⚠️⚠️⚠️ This should be mentioned somewhere in README.MD
