I suspect that the way this project is developed by my team is counter-intuitive as far as gradle is concerned, however, that's not about to change any time soon.
Also... technically the location in the drop down menu points towards a missing feature/plugin or error at IDE level.
Any ideas on how to fix this, or where I would begin modding netbeans itself to fix this would be appreciated.
The only options for changing the way packages show up in the project tab, i.e. tree/reducedTree/list etc don't change anything at that level.
I feel I don't have to explain this, but those Business Packages [java][src] entries should show up as something like com.sun.moon.stars packages
Thank you.
at time of writing, 2020/01/18, apache netbeans can't deal with jdk8 codebases defined in gradle.
Solution is to use Netbeans 8.
