Description:
Every time build runs setup-java adds a new toolchain element to toolchains.xml. Even it already exists.

Thanks @cyrillzadra for mentioning this issue.

Task version:
v3

Platform:

  • Ubuntu
    macOS
    Windows

Runner type:

  • Hosted
    Self-hosted

Repro steps:
Run actions several times in a row and check the toolchains.xml file.

Expected behavior:
The toolchains.xml should have only none identical toolchains records.

Actual behavior:
The toolchains.xml has several (in relation to number of action runs) identical toolchains records.

The file should be recreated and then grow again; the only problem is if you added custom information to it manually. You'd have to redo that part. However, what you probably could do as a workaround is a run a custom shell step at the end of the job to delete this file and have it re-created again during setup-java execution.
