Marcus, My guess is the term "initializer processing" refers to Java object initialization. In other words, it suggests you might have assigned a value to the id field in a constructor.
As for an idea on how to have a generated field and also be able to set it on your own, I don't know any. Maybe someone else can suggest a solution.
