[mseele]

Auto Value fails against this code:

import com.google.auto.value.AutoValue;

@AutoValue
public abstract class Outer {

	public static Outer create(Inner value) {
		return new AutoValue_Outer(value);
	}

	public abstract Inner inner();

	@AutoValue
	public abstract static class Inner {

		public static Inner create(String value) {
			return new AutoValue_Outer_Inner(value);
		}

		public abstract String value();

	}

}

That looks pretty clearly like a bug in the Eclipse compiler. I would suggest logging an issue there (link, component APT). Don't forget to say what version of Eclipse it is, and which JDK.

It looks as if this is where the exception is being thrown:

        String moduleQualifiedName = moduleName != null ? moduleName+':'+qualifiedTypeName : qualifiedTypeName;
        if (this.initialTypeNames != null && this.initialTypeNames.includes(moduleQualifiedName)) {
                if (this.isIncrementalBuild)
                        // catch the case that a type inside a source file has been renamed but other class files are looking for it
                        throw new AbortCompilation(true, new AbortIncrementalBuildException(qualifiedTypeName));
                return null; // looking for a file which we know was provided at the beginning of the compilation
        }
