Description
If you open the class file IDEA suggests you to download the source code - very handy feature.
_⚠️ attachment `Selection_562.png` was not included in the export_
Now occasionally I update the version of the library, but IDEA keeps using the old downloaded source, though it informs you that source doesn't match the actual bytecode.
_⚠️ attachment `Selection_561.png` was not included in the export_
I found no easy way to re-download the (correct) source.
At the moment I need to manually remove the source file from multiple places in module libraries, and this is tedious process.
After I remove - IDEA lets me fetch the new source.
Why can't this be automated at the IDEA side? Ex.: to add additional links to 2nd screen "Download correct sources" / "Choose correct sources"
Thank you!
