I am using IntelliJ IDEA on ubuntu. I added lombok.jar into my project and installed the Lombok plugin for IDEA. I have access to the annotations but the getters and setters aren't generated. I get the same errors I would get if I tried accessing a getter or setter method that doesn't exist. What could I be missing?

You need to install the Lombok plugin for IDEA. Open the Settings panel (Ctrl + Alt + S). Search for "Plugins", then search for "Lombok" in the plugins. Find the plugin and install it. Finally, restart your IDEA. Then everything will be OK!

I fixed it by ticking the "Enable annotation processing" checkbox in Settings->Compiler->Annotation Processors.

Along with this you might also need to install lombok plugin as mentioned in @X.Chen's answer for new versions of IntelliJ Idea.

It is a combination of

  • Ticking the "Enable annotation processing" checkbox in Settings->Compiler->Annotation Processors.

    and

  • Install the plugin of Lombok for idea and restart for change to take effect.

If you are on Mac, make sure you enable annotation processing (tick the checkbox) at these 2 places.

1.) Intellij IDEA -> Preferences -> Compiler -> Annotation Processors

2.) File -> Other Settings -> Default Settings -> Compiler -> Annotation Processors

And then

3.) Intellij IDEA -> Preferences -> Plugins ->Browse Repositories-> Search for "Lombok"-> install plugin -> Apply and restart IDEA

4.) And then probably restart Intellij IDEA.

This is my IntelliJ IDEA and Mac Version - IntelliJ IDEA 2017.1.5 Build #IU-171.4694.70 --- Mac OS X 10.12

I had both the Lombok plugin installed and Annotation Processing enabled within IntelliJ and my syntax highlighting still wasn't working properly. This could have been due to the 2017 to 2018 IDEA upgrade. I was getting warnings "access exceeds rights" on private fields within classes I had used @Getter and @Setter on.

I had to uninstall the Lombok plugin, restart IntelliJ, then reinstall the plugin, and restart IntelliJ once more.

Everything is working good now.

It's possible that you already have the Lombok plugin, and still the generated methods are not recognised by Android Studio. In such case the plugin might be out of date, so the solution is to simply update it.

Preferences -> Plugins -> Lombok Plugin -> Update Plugin

Go to settings->Plugins->Browse repositories and search for Lombok it will display the Lombok plugin also you will see the install option on the right side panel. Please install it. Then restart your intelliJ IDE. This has solved my issue.

i had this issue, just make sure

  1. Lombok pulgin is added.
  2. Annotation processor is ticked.
  3. In your build.gradle/ pom.xml, you have set lombok to be the annotation processor.

Eg. for gradle->

annotationProcessor 'org.projectlombok:lombok:1.18.12'

In my case,

  1. Lombok plugin was installed ✅
  2. Annotation processor was checked ✅

but still I was getting the error as lombok is incompatible and getter and setters was not recognized. with further checking I found that recently my intelliJ version got upgraded and the old Lombok plugin is not compatible.

Go to Preference -> Plugins -> Search lombok and update

OR

Go to Preference -> Plugins -> Search lombok-> Uninstall restart IDE and install again from MarketPlace

  2. then i switch on window with idea 13 (it proposed to reread some config files. I agreed and restart my IDE). And then everithing became ok with tha latest version of IDEA

In my case it was migrating from idea 2017 to 2018 and Lombok plugin was already there. All I did is added "Enable annotation processing options" entering preferences and check the box

Actually the lombok is working (if you run the project even with the IDE red alerts, you will see the project will run without error), but the IDE is not recognizing all the resources generated by the lombok annotations. So you have to install the lombok plugin, that's all!

In MacBook press command+, and then go to plug-in and search for Lombok and then install it.

It will work without restarting IntelliJ IDEA IDE if doesn't work then please try with restart.

Many thanks

Two ways:

  1. Check EnableAnnotationProcessing under setting=>compiler
  2. install lombok from plugins and restart IDE
