Overview

A Project is the main API to use to interact with Gradle. All top level statements within a "build.gradle" build script are delegated to the corresponding Project instance and when executed, modify its state.

In case of a multi-project build, It is possible to configure a project build from another build script associated with any project in the hierarchy. This capability is called cross-project configuration. Gradle implements cross-project configuration via configuration injection. Configuration injection is the default way to define common behavior.
