Now click on the “Specify Location” button and locate the eclipse.exe path under eclipse installation folder like this. Once the jar downloaded in Local repository, goto the jar location from command prompt and run the following command java -jar lombok-1.16.18.jar and we should be greeted by Lombok installation window provided by lombok. Now do a mvn clean install command on the newly created project to get this jar downloaded in the local repository. Here I am explaining how to do with Eclipse.Īdd below dependency in your maven project so that it got downloaded first in your local repository.

To use Lombok you need to install Lombok in your IDE.

If Lombok is in the classpath, it can easily get rid of all the getters & setters methods, class constructors, hashcode and equals methods and many more by just adding a couple of annotations the class.

This is the reason it becoming very popular among the developer community.

Lombok is a very handy tool for minimizing the boilerplate code as well as providing lots of other features such as lazy loading,thread-safety or immutability.

You can also go for a Maven project and resolve these as well ( Project Lombok Maven repository).įile -> Settings -> Build, Execution, Deployment -> Compiler ->Īnnotation Processors -> (Tick the checkbox as per the image givenĢ) Install/Update Lombok Plugin ( see this)įile -> Settings -> Plugins -> Search for Lombok Plugin -> Update or Given below are the ways to resolve Lombok annotations in your preferred IDE.

So don't expect the code to magically change whenever you add an annotation.īut,you need to get them resolved in your specific IDE so that all dependencies and imports are correctly added. It happens only when the Java compiler generates an Abstract Source Tree.

To answer the question: Lombok annotations do not generate the code in development time. There are a lot of annotations provided by Lombok. While annotation processors usually generate new source files, Lombok modifies existing ones by adding new fields or methods. Lombok is an annotation processor - it has full access to the generated source tree. IDE which I am using is sts(Spring Tool Suite) //User POJO Class I have used annotation in my POJO Class but the getters and setters are not generated.
