Using both @AllArgsConstructor and @RequiredArgsConstructor

[Troy]

I have a class which looks like this:

    @RequiredArgsConstructor
    @AllArgsConstructor
    @FieldDefaults(level=AccessLevel.PRIVATE, makeFinal=true)
    enum Foo {

     A("a", "A"),
     B("b);


      @NonNull String first;
      String second;
    }

The first argument is required.  The second is optional.  Is there a way to generate both constructors? As shown, RequiredArgsConstructor generates a two-argument constructor, because there is not value provided in the definition of second, which duplicates the AllArgsConstructor constructor.  If I instead declared second by

String second = null;

then both annotations generate a one arg constructor (for first).

I guess, you consider it being optional, because of its nullability, but this is not how Lombok sees it. Both arguments are required because of makeFinal=true. Any field which is @NonNull or final counts as required for Lombok. You'd need a NonNullArgsConstructor, which does not exist.

This could be useful sometimes, but I doubt such a FR would get accepted. With enums, I often have something like

Z(),

A("a1"),

B("b1", "b2"),

C("c1", "c2", "c3"),

where I need many constructors and I have to write them manually (which is, fortunately, easy). Default arguments would help, but it's getting pretty complicated for not so much gain.

As a side note, I'd suggest using the empty string instead of null, if possible.
