Maven compilation failure

[Sura]

When running

mvn install

I get following error messages at places where I call lombok getters:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:2.3.2:compile (default-compile) on project lab-web: Compilation failure: Compilation failure:

Here is that line 44:

userService.createUser(user.getUsername(), user.getEmail(), user.getPlainTextPassword());

Whereas in User it’s simply

@Getter @Setter private String username;
@Getter @Setter private String passwordDigest;
@Getter @Setter private String email;

The lombok Plugin in Intellij Idea is enabled, as well as the little tick in Annotation Processors in both locations (Mac). 

1.) Intellij Idea -> Preferences -> Compiler -> Annotation Processors
2.) File -> Other Settings -> Default Settings -> Compiler -> Annotation Processors

Build -> Rebuild Project runs without errors or warnings.

Maven 3

Java 1.8

Lombok 1.16.4

Tomcat 7.0.62

How can I get it to compile without errors?

Thanks a lot.

I got the same error. Searching google revealed that circa Lobok 0.12.x there was similiar problem that was reported fixed by the developers.

I looks like regression.

I used

<dependency>

      <groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>

      <artifactId>lombok</artifactId>

      <version>1.14.2</version>

      <scope>provided</scope>

    </dependency>

and it fixed the problem.

Someone should file a bug over this
