False positives problems (when using Lombok)

[herrmanno]

When using this plugin with a lombok-project the plugin determines many problems (e. g. for missing getters and setters) that disappear when the corresponding file is opened.

Environment

• Operating System: macOS
• JDK version: 1.8.0_102
• Visual Studio Code version: 1.20.1
• Java extension version: 0.20.0

Steps To Reproduce

1. Configure lombok support for this plugin, as described here
2. Open a project that uses lombok annotations like @getter or @DaTa

Sample Project

Unfortunately, I cannot submit the affected project.
The important bits are:

<!-- pom.xml -->
<dependency>
        <groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
        <artifactId>lombok</artifactId>
        <scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

// License.java
@Data
public class License {
    private String serial;
}

Current Result

A Problem “The method getSerial() is undefined for the type License“ is listed in the problems view. When opening the corresponding file by clicking on the entry the problem disappears after a few seconds.
This behavior is reproducable when restarting vs code.

Expected Result

No problem “The method getSerial() is undefined for the type License“ is listed in the problems view.

I can't reproduce the issue.
I have used the attached project and the following settings:

"java.jdt.ls.vmargs": "-javaagent:/home/snjeza/.m2/repository/org/projectlombok/lombok/1.16.20/lombok-1.16.20.jar -Xbootclasspath/a:/home/snjeza/.m2/repository/org/projectlombok/lombok/1.16.20/lombok-1.16.20.jar -noverify -Xmx1G -XX:+UseG1GC -XX:+UseStringDeduplication",

This bug is still happening, please see: Problems list still show errors of undefined for getters or setters. The issue opener resolved it doing this: microsoft/vscode-lombok#13 (comment) , but that workaround doesn't work for others

[snjeza]

@GabrielBB could you attach a sample project?

[YongJieYongJie]

Here's how I managed to solve the problem:

1. Make sure everything else works:
   • I.e., even though the errors show up in the PROBLEMS list, once you navigate to the specific file, the errors for that file disappears.
   • You will likely need to install the Lombok Annotations Support for VSCode extension for this.
2. Run Java: Clean the Java language server workspace from Command Palette.
3. Run Java: Import Java projects in workspace from Command Palette.
4. The problem is fixed (at least for me).
   • Do note however that you might still see a huge number of warnings / info messages.

I tried @YongJieYongJie 's solution but the problems appeared again as soon as I compiled the project using maven.

[Koishilll]

Maybe the extension Lombok Annotations Support for VS Code can help.

[EuniceB]

@Koishilll unfortunately that project seems to be inactive for a while, see here

I saw this issue too, but this goes away if i downgrade vscode-java plugin to 0.79.2

[monaka]

Just in my case, the issue was fixed by adding <java.version>11</java.version> to pom.xml.
No vmargs setting required.

<properties>
  <java.version>11</java.version>
</properties>

It looks vscode-java generates configs for Java8 and recent versions of jars expect newer Javas.
I'm not familiar with Java build tools except Maven. But I guess there are a each way to set the version of Java.

My env is java-0.82.0-369.vsix on Theia in Eclipse/Che.

---

update: vmargs is required. No code completion for setter/getter without vmargs.
The part of settings.json in my Theia is: "java.jdt.ls.vmargs": "-javaagent:/lombok.jar", (it must be same as in VSCode).

[jkone27]

the preview gets it right, it seems java extension is not reading java version from my pom.xml file?

[jdneo]

Lombok is supported now. Check https://github.com/redhat-developer/vscode-java/wiki/Lombok-support

i opened it in nov 2022, lombok support was from july 2022 so i suspect it was already there at the time of this, i will try reload the app to see if the problem persist after updating all...
