[BUG] Annotation processor 'lombok.launch.AnnotationProcessorHider$AnnotationProcessor' not found

[milindbangar79]

Environment:

JDK : 1.8_121 IDE : STS 3.9.4.RELEASE Maven Compiler Plugin : 3.6.1 Lombok Version : 1.18.4

I have seen solution for the issue, but not working even changing the versions as mentioned in other posts.

Plugin Config:

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>3.6.1</version>
    <configuration>
        <compilerVersion>1.8</compilerVersion>
        <source>1.8</source>
        <target>1.8</target>
        <encoding>UTF-8</encoding>
        <!--<compilerArgument>-proc:none</compilerArgument>-->
        <annotationProcessors>
                <annotationProcessor>lombok.launch.AnnotationProcessorHider$AnnotationProcessor</annotationProcessor>
        </annotationProcessors>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

Kindly let me know, where I would be going wrong.

Thanks Milind

I hope you have a simpler complete pom file to reproduce the problem. Can you please remove as much as possible?

[rspilker]

Uh, why is the lombok scope runtime and not provided?

[rspilker]

I am not a maven expert. But don't you also need a <annotationProcessorPaths>?

[milindbangar79]

Thanks Roel for the responses.

My bad in using wrong scope. Have updated the pom .

When I first got the issue, referred another issue(https://github.com/rzwitserloot/lombok/issues/905) raised here and update the

What would be the value for annotationProcessorPaths, if you can help me with that?

Thanks Milind

[rspilker]

Sorry, I am not a maven expert. Maybe stackoverflow is a better platform to get help on this.

[milindbangar79]

Hi,

The issue is resolved by changing the Lombok version and updating maven compiler accordingly .... Seems like compatibility issue more than anything else.

Thanks Milind
