Android
Android development with lombok is easy and won't make your android application any 'heavier' because lombok is a compile-time only library. It is important to configure your android project properly to make sure lombok doesn't end up in your application and waste precious space on android devices.
The instructions listed below are excerpts from The
AndroidAnnotations project cookbook. You may wish to refer to that documentation for complete instructions; lombok is just
the equivalent to androidannotations-VERSION.jar; there is no -api aspect.
Gradle
-
Make sure that the version of your android plugin is
>= 0.4.3 - Use the gradle-lombok plugin.
-
If you don't want to use the plugin, add Lombok to your application's
dependenciesblock (requires Gradle v2.12 or newer):
dependencies { compileOnly "org.projectlombok:lombok:1.18.42" }
Android Studio
Follow the previous instructions (Gradle). In addition to setting up your gradle project correctly, you need to add the Lombok IntelliJ plugin to add lombok support to Android Studio:
-
Go to
File > Settings > Plugins -
Click on
Browse repositories... -
Search for
Lombok Plugin -
Click on
Install plugin - Restart Android Studio
Modify your application's dependencies block:
dependencies {
compileOnly 'org.projectlombok:lombok:1.18.42'
annotationProcessor 'org.projectlombok:lombok:1.18.42'
}
Eclipse
In eclipse, create a 'lightweight' lombok jar that contains only the annotations by running:
java -jar lombok.jar publicApiThen, add the
lombok-api.jar file created by running this command to your android project instead of the complete lombok.jar, and, as usual, install lombok into eclipse by double-clicking lombok.jar.
Maven
You should be able to just follow the normal integrate lombok with maven instructions.
Note that if you use android, eclipse, and maven together you may have to replace lombok.jar in your eclipse android project's build path (which you can modify in that project's properties page) with lombok-api.jar, as produced in the procedure explained for Eclipse, above.
Ant
-
Find
build.xmlin${ANDROID_SDK_ROOT}/tools/ant/build.xmland copy the-compiletarget into the paste buffer. -
Copy this to the
build.xmlof your own project, right before the<import file="${sdk.dir}/tools/ant/build.xml">line. -
Create a
compile-libsdirectory in your own project and copy the completelombok.jarto it. -
Now modify the
<classpath>entry inside the<javac>task in the-compiletarget you just copied:
add<fileset dir="compile-libs" includes="*.jar" />to it.
