---------------------------------------------------------------------
Great thanks for the clear answer. I don‘t think it boils down to futures of
the a specific Annotation set … like Lombok, but general. In Java there are
some quite valid Annotation Processors since a couple of years. And also simple
in-house processors are easily imaginable. As you write „most Lombok
annotations …“ … but not all.
That said, i prefer the clear statement : „not supported“ …. the boundaries and
responsibilities are clear.
That said, I certainly would love to look into this …. but i don‘t think my
skill set is sufficient , unfortunately. That said , if you could give me
started place, area to look into , i would do that … and know possibly another
very knowledgeable developer , who could help.
Great thanks for your help, and keep up with the great Job with Groovy, you
all.

> Does Groovy support Java Anntotation Processors?
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: GROOVY-11388
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-11388
> Project: Groovy
> Issue Type: Question
> Reporter: Christoph Henrici
> Priority: Major
>
> My question is simple : Does Groovy support Annotation Processors, like
> Mapstruct , Lombok or even custom Processors :
> [https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/javax/annotation/processing/Processor.html]
> ?
> Something like:
>
> {code:java}
> import lombok.Builder
> import lombok.NonNull
> import lombok.Value
> @Value
> @Builder
> class TestE {
> …
> {code}
>
> Please, no opionated answers, just facts and fact based explanations. There
> are many confuseing, strongly subjective and optinated posts in the web
> (Stacktrace and such, and even here), which trend towards no, you don‘t need
> it, i don't recommend, Lombok is a hack etc etc, but nothing really
> conclusive, substantial and objective.
> My Testcase does seems to indicate that at least the Lombok Annotation
> Processor is not supported , see :
> [https://github.com/chhex/groovylombok/tree/main]
> But it also may well be, that i am missing something in the Gradle Build.
> The enviroment i tested in:
> {code:java}
> $ ./gradlew -versionGradle 7.3.3Build time: 2021-12-22 12:37:54 UTC
> Revision: 6f556c80f945dc54b50e0be633da6c62dbe8dc71Kotlin: 1.5.31
> Groovy: 3.0.9
> Ant: Apache Ant(TM) version 1.10.11 compiled on July 10 2021
> JVM: 17.0.3 (Eclipse Adoptium 17.0.3+7)
> OS: Mac OS X 13.2.1 aarch64{code}
>
> Where the Groovy Version used by gradle is the same for the application.
> If this is a redundant post, sorry! I really like Groovy and am using it
> frequently, it would be just great to have good understanding of it‘s
> limitations, if that is the case.
> Best thanks for any help.
