Download 'Edgy Guinea Pig' - the Lombok Cutting Edge build

version: 1.18.39 (2025-07-31 23:22:51 UTC)

PLATFORM: JDK25 support added (we're still one week out from official first release candidate, but feature freeze is in effect so we expect this version to be compatible with JDK25's official release). Issue #3859.
BUGFIX: Recent versions of eclipse (or the eclipse-based java lang server for VSCode) caused java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Document does not match the AST. Issue #3886.
FEATURE: @Jacksonized @Accessors(fluent=true) automatically creates the relevant annotations such that Jackson correctly identifies fluent accessors.
IMPROBABLE BREAKING CHANGE: From versions 1.18.16 to 1.18.38, lombok automatically copies certain Jackson annotations (e.g., @JsonProperty) from fields to the corresponding accessors (getters/setters). However, it turned out to be harmful in certain situations. Thus, Lombok does not automatically copy those annotations any more. You can restore the old behavior using the config key lombok.copyJacksonAnnotationsToAccessors = true.

You can use the edge release from maven using the projectlombok.org repository. This requires:

Adding the lombok maven repository to your repositories section
Adding lombok as a dependency to your project in the dependencies section, specifying version edge-SNAPSHOT.
Adding lombok as an annotation processor in the annotationProcessorPaths section, specifying version edge-SNAPSHOT.

These sections in your pom file should look like this:

<repositories>
	<repository>
		<id>projectlombok.org</id>
		<url>https://projectlombok.org/edge-releases</url>
	</repository>
</repositories>

<dependencies>
	<dependency>
		<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
		<artifactId>lombok</artifactId>
		<version>edge-SNAPSHOT</version>
		<scope>provided</scope>
	</dependency>
</dependencies>

<build>
	<plugins>
		<plugin>
			<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
			<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
			<configuration>
				<annotationProcessorPaths>
					<path>
						<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
						<artifactId>lombok</artifactId>
						<version>edge-SNAPSHOT</version>
					</path>
				</annotationProcessorPaths>
			</configuration>
		</plugin>
	</plugins>
</build>

You can use the edge release from gradle using the projectlombok.org repository:

repositories {
	mavenCentral()
	maven { url 'https://projectlombok.org/edge-releases' }
}

plugins {
	id 'net.ltgt.apt' version '0.10'
}

dependencies {
	compileOnly 'org.projectlombok:lombok:edge-SNAPSHOT'
	
	apt 'org.projectlombok:lombok:edge-SNAPSHOT'
}

Cutting edge a bit too gutsy for you? You can grab the stable release instead.
