Why does "gradle: configure build" download a IdeaC.zip?
Answered
Hi, I followed official document on starting development of plugin with gradle, and the "gradle: configure build" seems never ends.
Then I tried to run "gradle build" from the command line on the newly created project out of template, it showed that it was downloading a IdeaC-2019.3.3.zip which is >500 MB.
Why did it do that? Anyway to avoid it? Since I cannot continue.

Most probably, it is needed to download IDEA sources to resolve functions and references inside your plugin.
