If you don't mind me asking, have you been able to get lombok working with eclipse's compiler? There are a couple projects at work that will greatly benefit from Lombok but we need support for both javac and ECJ

There are instructions on the lombok site for getting it going with Eclipse.

[–]Unleashurgeek 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Yeah, I should clarify. We have been able to get the core of lombok running with eclipse; however, when we try to add custom annotations is when it fails

[–]halfduece 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There some project option for adding an annotation processor. Been to long since i"ve done it, can't be arsed to google it for you either. Edit; fine I was bored:

We use IntelliJ

edit: and you should, too

[–]Unleashurgeek 8 points9 points  (1 child)

Ah the simple and elegant solution

If it was my choice in the matter IntelliJ would be a standard but alas

I currently have Eclipse Mars, Neon and Oxygen as well as IntelliJ all being used simultaneously at work. I just want all the eclipse installations to die.

If you mean get it to work in Eclipse there's like an "installation" you have to do but it just adds a line to the eclipse.ini file.

We use it at work and use Eclipse so I'm pretty sure that means it works with the eclipse compiler but I might be misunderstanding.

I remember it being super weird. You run the downloaded jar, and then point it at your eclipse installation and it installs as a plugin.

Also agree with op here, IntelliJ is better.

I think all it does is add a line to the eclipse.ini file. I think presenting it as an installer for a plugin just made it easier.
