Ambiguous method overloading for method java.io.File#<init>.

[p4paul]

If the P4CONFIG environment variable is defined (for use with Perforce) I get a Gradle build error (see below for details...).

Looking at PerforceScmProvider.groovy it seems to be related to another environment variable WORKSPACE which was not defined (cause of the null error). Setting export WORKSPACE=. seems to workaround the issue.

Using Gradle Wrapper: gradle-6.1.1-all.zip

Gradle build error:

A problem occurred configuring root project 'p4search-filter'.
> Failed to notify project evaluation listener.
   > Ambiguous method overloading for method java.io.File#<init>.

Hi @p4paul,

Thanks for bringing this up

We haven't work with perforce for a while so applied your workaround as default behavior when WORKSPACE is missing: #65

This was released in 7.1.4

Let me know if this is enough or if you have other suggestions for this.
