Describe the Bug
In Cursor (VSCode fork), Java imports between modules in a Gradle multi-module project are not resolved. Imports from sibling modules show “cannot find symbol” errors, even though the project builds fine via Gradle CLI. Code navigation and auto-complete also don’t work for classes in other modules.
This does not happen in official VSCode with the latest Java extension – only in Cursor, which seems to use an outdated or modified Java extension.
Steps to Reproduce
Create a standard Gradle multi-module Java project (with multiple subprojects/modules in settings.gradle).
In one module, import a class from another module.
Open the project in Cursor.
Observe that imports from sibling modules are not resolved (“cannot find symbol”).
Try building the project from command line – it works without errors.
(Optional) Open the same project in official VSCode – imports are resolved correctly.
Expected Behavior
Imports from sibling modules should be resolved. Code navigation and auto-complete should work between modules, just like in official VSCode or IntelliJ IDEA.
