Annotation processing issue

[Allsimon]

My project fail with Lombok related errors such as The method setObjectId(String) is undefined for the type ... or The method builder() is undefined for the type ... during :j2objcTranslate

I understood that j2objc supports annotation processing (google/j2objc#503) but I can't get it to work, did I miss something ?

Hi @Allsimon, I don't know if anyone has successfully used annotation processors with the J2ObjC Gradle Plugin yet. The main authors are busy with other work at the moment so we don't have time to look in to this, though we'll be responsive if you share a PR to fix anything.

My suggestion is to first try with j2objc by itself with the plugin and see if you can get that working. Once you do that, compare the failing command line the plugin uses for j2objc, to the working command line that you wrote. At that point, a fix should be relatively straight forward.

@Allsimon:
I believe @andrewfunston had a j2objc gradle build with Dagger2 working . Dagger was the system we aimed for in terms of annotation processor support; unfortunately I'm not familiar with Lombok.

@andrewfunston - it would be very helpful if you can provide some insights
on this

also @Allsimon, your full j2objcConfig and relevant parts of the gradle error spew are useful if @andrewfunston notices a common issue; and you might want to read #517 where we walked through getting his Dagger build working.

unfortunately, neither @brunobowden nor I use annotation processors in our projects that use this plugin.
