I've recently installed Lombok (version 0.11.0) into my Eclipse Indigo installation and now all of my projects in Eclipse no longer launch, both from Run and Debug.
The error I am getting is the following when I try and run a project
Usage: javaw [-options] class [args...]

-client to select the "client" VM

The default VM is client.

This suggests to me that it cannot find the main class file for the project I am running but it correctly references the project in the run and debug configuration, the file is there in the project and I've checked the /bin folder to make sure the class is in there (which it is).
The only thing I can think of which may or may not be causing a problem is that just after the Lombok installation, the /bin folder did not contain the correct contents, instead it built my JUnit test cases in there.
I've already cleaned my entire project set several times and uninstalled/re-installed Lombok. I've reset my computer and still no joy. Eclipse is running with jdk 1.6.30.
UPDATE: The problem seems to lie in if the project references another project using Lombok or that project uses Lombok directly. Removing the references to Lombok to the project allows the project to execute normally in Eclipse.
