Lombok not working with "Android room". Gives "error: Cannot find getter for field"

Question

I'm using Lombok in android studio 3.0 preview with gradle 3.0.0-alpha1. I have following two annotation processor in my dependency:

annotationProcessor "android.arch.persistence.room:compiler:1.0.0-alpha1"
annotationProcessor "org.projectlombok:lombok:1.16.16"

Now, If I use annotations from both dependencies in same class like:

@Entity(tableName = "test")
@Getter
public final class TestEntity {...}

It'll produce an error, that is:

error: Cannot find getter for field.

But if I remove any one of them, it'll work fine.

Any ideas/solutions?

Answer 1

Reorder your annotation processor declarations. Move lombok up above the room compiler

Answer 2

From Edwin Nyawoli answer, i just want to make it clear

In your build.gradle module file, reorder Lombok dependency above Room dependency

// Lombok
compileOnly "org.projectlombok:lombok:$lombok_version"
annotationProcessor "org.projectlombok:lombok:$lombok_version"

// Room
implementation "androidx.room:room-runtime:$room_version"
annotationProcessor "androidx.room:room-compiler:$room_version"

Iffy

Answer 3

Are you using val in your model class? If yes, change to var

Formalize

I'm writing code in java not in scala or kotlin, so i'm not using any of these var or val. – Bane

Answer 4

Try do it, it works for me.

public String getmState(){
    return mState;
}

change to

public String getMState(){
    return mState;
}

Separable

That's an explicitly defined getter method. The original question was in regards to Lombok (projectlombok.org) – Obstruction
