'Add a non Gradle Project to a Gradle Multiproject as Module in Intellij

  • Project A is a Gradle multi project with the sub projects b and c.
  • Project X is a non Gradle project. The sub projects depend on (compiled) project X.
  • The Project X jar is included as file tree dependency in the build.gradle of the sub projects:
    implementation fileTree(dir: project.projectDir.path + '/lib/', include: ['X.jar])

As IDE we are using Intellij. We want to have project A and X in the same workspace and we want to have changes made in project X to be reflected on the classpath of Project A.

We tried to add project X to A,b,c in the Module Settings in Intellij as dependency without success.

Is there a way to achive the described scenario in Intellij without migrating project X to gradle?
