Projects with Gradle build relative paths issue

[Fuzzo]

Describe the bug

Hi,
i've a project with Gradle as build system with this config props:

quarkus.log.file.enabled=true
quarkus.log.file.path=./log/myApp.log

Once I start quarkusDev gradle task, I see no <prj-root>/log/myApp.log file.
As I didn't get any error, i searched for myApp.log file anywhere under <prj-root>, and i found it, but in a path I didn't expect: <prj-root-dir>\build\classes\java\main\log\myApp.log.

Testing the behaviour with a quarkus create app <name> project, with same props, produces the file at the expected path <prj-root>/log/myApp.log.

Expected behavior

Retive paths resolved against <prj-root> in Gradle-based builds

Actual behavior

Relative paths are resolved against Gradle build subdir: <prj-root-dir>\build\classes\java\main

How to Reproduce?

1. Run quarkus create app test --gradle
2. Add the following rows to application.properties to enable file logging:

quarkus.log.file.enabled=true
quarkus.log.file.path=./log/app.log

3. Run .\gradlew quarkusDev
4. Look that nothing exists in ./log

Do the same omitting --gradle in step 1 to create a Maven project; run quarkus dev at step 3, log file exists in ./log as expected.

You can set the working directory as follows in build.gradle:

quarkusDev {
	workingDirectory = project.projectDir
}

@aloubyansky shouldn't this be the default? The working directory is the project directory.

quarkus/devtools/gradle/gradle-application-plugin/src/main/java/io/quarkus/gradle/tasks/QuarkusDev.java

Line 132 in 25ceb27

workingDirectory.convention(getProject().provider(() -> QuarkusPluginExtension.getLastFile(getCompilationOutput())));

getCompilationOutput() returns ./projectDir/build/classes/java/main/

Works perfectly, thanks
