how to build and run a helloworld project using parceler?

[4570235]

I'm interesting in using parceler in my android project. I've read the introduction and some of the issues, but I am still unable to setup a simple helloworld project to run. It seems that the problem is no annotation class is generated.
Can anybody write an entry level manual to show, step by step, how to setup a helloworld project using parceler, with the IDE eclipse or IntelliJ ?

We have multiple example projects in the examples directory. Check out the /examples/app for a simple application that currently uses Google Auto. As for IDE integration, I've always advocated for using a CLI build tool like Maven or Gradle to complement your IDE environment. Parceler works best in this sort of build. Intellij builds do work, but I'm not sure about the final results. Personally, I've never focused on Ecliipse integration (see #30) and annotation processing support has been problematic for Parceler.

The procedure to getting started should be the following:

1. Set up project as normal.
2. Add Parceler dependencies to pom.xml or gradle.build file (see README for exact syntax).
3. Annotate beans, serialize/deserialize using Parcels.wrap()/Parcels.unwrap().
4. Build and enjoy.

TLDR: Check out example projects and use a CLI build tool.
