如何防止gradle.properties在Cordova Android中被覆盖？

Question

In a Cordova (11.0.0) project, when building for the Android ("cordova-android": "^10.1.2") platform, I'm getting this error from gradle(7.4.2): Unable to make field private final java.lang.String java.io.File.path accessible: module java.base does not "opens java.io" to unnamed module .

According to this answer and this answer it's related to Java 18 and the issue can be fixed by adding some properties to gradle.properties.

The file requiring editing is platforms/android/gradle.properties and it is recommended that this file is modified using the before_build hook script.

I have done that and confirmed that my script correctly copies my version of gradle.properties. However something is subsequently overwriting that with the default version of the file.

How do I prevent my version of the file being overwritten by the default version?

to fix jvmargs it is necessary to modify: node_modules\cordova-android\lib\config\GradlePropertiesParser.js with:

_configureProperties (properties) {
    // Iterate though the properties and set only if missing.
    Object.keys(properties).forEach(key => {
        const value = this.gradleFile.get(key);

        if (!value) {
            // Handles the case of adding missing defaults or new properties that are missing.
            events.emit('verbose', `[Gradle Properties] Appending configuration item: ${key}=${properties[key]}`);
            this.gradleFile.set(key, properties[key]);
        } else if (value !== properties[key]) {
            if (this._defaults[key] && this._defaults[key] !== properties[key]) {
                let shouldEmit = true;
                if (key === 'org.gradle.jvmargs') {
                    shouldEmit = this._isJVMMemoryLessThanRecommended(properties[key], this._defaults[key]);                        
                }

                if (shouldEmit) {
                    // Since the value does not match default, we will notify the discrepancy with Cordova's recommended value.
                    events.emit('info', `[Gradle Properties] Detected Gradle property "${key}" with the value of "${properties[key]}", Cordova's recommended value is "${this._defaults[key]}"`);
                }
            } else {
                // When the current value exists but does not match the new value or does matches the default key value, the new value it set.
                events.emit('verbose', `[Gradle Properties] Updating Gradle property "${key}" with the value of "${properties[key]}"`);
            }

            // We will set the new value in either case.
             this.gradleFile.set(key, properties[key]);
        }
    });
    //add this line here (Ben) :
    this.gradleFile.set('org.gradle.jvmargs', this.gradleFile.get('org.gradle.jvmargs') + " --add-exports=java.base/sun.nio.ch=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens=java.base/java.lang=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens=java.base/java.lang.reflect=ALL-UNNAMED --add-opens=java.base/java.io=ALL-UNNAMED --add-exports=jdk.unsupported/sun.misc=ALL-UNNAMED");
}
