    - #### getFrom

          Set<Object> getFrom()

      Returns the set of source paths for this collection. The paths are evaluated as per `Project.files(Object...)`.
      Returns:
        The set of source paths. Returns an empty set if none.

    - #### setFrom

          void setFrom(Iterable<?> paths)

      Sets the source paths for this collection. The given paths are evaluated as per `Project.files(Object...)`.
      Parameters:
        `paths` - The paths.

    - #### setFrom

          void setFrom(Object... paths)

      Sets the source paths for this collection. The given paths are evaluated as per `Project.files(Object...)`.
      Parameters:
        `paths` - The paths.

    - #### from

          ConfigurableFileCollection from(Object... paths)

      Adds a set of source paths to this collection. The given paths are evaluated as per `Project.files(Object...)`.
      Parameters:
        `paths` - The files to add.
      Returns:
        this

    - #### getBuiltBy

          Set<Object> getBuiltBy()

      Returns the set of tasks which build the files of this collection.
      Returns:
        The set. Returns an empty set when there are no such tasks.

    - #### setBuiltBy

          ConfigurableFileCollection setBuiltBy(Iterable<?> tasks)

      Sets the tasks which build the files of this collection.
      Parameters:
        `tasks` - The tasks. These are evaluated as per `Task.dependsOn(Object...)`.
      Returns:
        this

    - #### builtBy

          ConfigurableFileCollection builtBy(Object... tasks)

      Registers some tasks which build the files of this collection.
      Parameters:
        `tasks` - The tasks. These are evaluated as per `Task.dependsOn(Object...)`.
