addGeneratedManifestFile

fun <TASK : Task> addGeneratedManifestFile(
    taskProvider: TaskProvider<TASK>,
    wiredWith: (TASK) -> RegularFileProperty
): Unit

Add the output of a custom task to the list of manifests.

The RegularFileProperty is the output of a Task TASK that has been registered using the Gradle's Task manager.

The manifest is added last to the variant's list and has the highest priority.

Parameters
`taskProvider: TaskProvider<TASK>`	the `TaskProvider` returned by Gradle's Task manager when registering the Task of type `TASK`.
`wiredWith: (TASK) -> RegularFileProperty`	the method reference returning the `TASK` task's output to use as a source directory. The generated manifest location is automatically determined by the Android Gradle Plugin

addStaticManifestFile

Added in 8.5.0-alpha06

fun addStaticManifestFile(relativeFilePath: String): Unit

Add existing manifest file to the variant.

The file will be added last in the list of manifest files for the variant. As long as there is a manifest merging process, added manifest will overlay others and become the one with the highest priority.

Do not use addStaticManifestFile to add sources that are generated by a task, instead use addGeneratedManifestFile

Parameters
`relativeFilePath: String`	the manifest file path, that will be resolved using the `Directory.file` API relative to the Gradle project directory.

val all: Provider<List<RegularFile>>

Get all registered manifests as a List of RegularFile.

The outer List represents the priority of manifests respective to each other, meaning that elements first in the list overrides elements last in the list.

The returned Provider can be used directly in a org.gradle.api.tasks.InputFiles annotated property of a Task
