Where to put executable binaries in a Gradle project?

Question

Is there a convention where to put binary executable "helper" files like nssm.exe in a Gradle project (or Maven project, if Gradle has no convention)?

At the moment I put this file in src/scripts but I feel that an .exe file is not exactly a script ...

Where would you put a helper executable like nssm.exe in a Gradle project?

Answer 1

My only searching of this was in a tutorial for building a C executable. The location given by the tutorial was ./build/exe/ This is documented on the main Gradle Guide site located. here

Maybe this means it's an intended path to create? Hope the link helps somewhat anyway.
