Lombok problems with Eclipse Oxygen

by

My env: java version “1.8.0_144”

Eclipse:
Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers.
Version: Oxygen Release (4.7.0)
Build id: 20170620-1800

  1. Exit Eclipse(if it is open) and downloaded jar from https://projectlombok.org/download

  2. execute command: java -jar lombok.jar

  3. This command will open window as shown here https://projectlombok.org/setup/eclipse, install and quit the installer.

  4. Add jar to build path/add it to pom.xml.

    e.g. for Gradle build

 annotationProcessor("org.projectlombok:lombok")
 compileOnly("org.projectlombok:lombok")
  1. restart eclipse.
  2. Go to Eclipse –> About Eclipse –> check ‘Lombok v1.16.18 “Dancing Elephant” is installed. https://projectlombok.org/‘
  3. To enable Lombok for the project: Enable annotation processing in the respective IDE.
    That’s it. It worked.
    I did not change eclipse init script.

Note: Read the note in following image regarding -vm options If you start
Eclipse with a custom -vm parameter, you’ll need to add: 

-vmargs -javaagent:<path-to-lombok-jar>/lombok.jar

as parameter as well

Above steps works for Photon Release (4.8.0) – Lombok v1.18.2, eclipse: Oxygen.3a Release (4.7.3a) – Lombok v1.18.0 and eclipse: Neon.3 Release (4.6.3) – Lombok v1.18.2

fyi,
For JDK – 10 and 11 support:
Lombok version should be at least v1.18.4 (October 30th, 2018) or higher.
