I'm using Intellij and trying to apply lombok to the project. But it keeps saying "cannot find symbol". Here's a quick sample of my code.

Class

import lombok.*;

@Data
public class Product {

    private String name;
    private Integer price;

    public Product(String name, Integer price){
        this.name = name;
        this.price = price;
    }
}

Main

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Collection;
import java.util.Iterator;

public class CollectionMain {
    public static void main(String[] args) {

        Collection<Product> products = new ArrayList<>();
        Product door = new Product("DOOR",90);
        Product bed = new Product("BED",60);
        Product ipad = new Product("iPad",15);

        products.add(door);
        products.add(bed);
        products.add(ipad);

        final Iterator<Product> productIterator = products.iterator();

        while(productIterator.hasNext()){
            Product product = productIterator.next();
            System.out.println(product.getPrice());
        }

    }
}

and the error says

CollectionMain.java:23: error: cannot find symbol System.out.println(product.getPrice()); ^ symbol: method getPrice() location: variable product of type Product

I didn't put

annotationProcessor 'org.projectlombok:lombok:1.18.12'

in my build.gradle

problem solved.
