Package lombok does not exist

Question

I am using IntelliJ IDEA 2018.2.5 (Community Edition). Here are the complete details.

Build #IC-182.4892.20, built on October 16, 2018
JRE: 1.8.0_152-release-1248-b19 amd64
JVM: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM by JetBrains s.r.o
Windows 10 10.0

I have followed all the suggested solutions in so many different answers in SO. but nothing worked for me.

Here are the screenshots of required setting that needs to be done for lombok package.

lombok jar is available in external libraries.

I still get the error while compiling the application.

Project Library:

Is the lombock Jar available in your specific project library? In my IDE, after I add a library, I still have to specify that any given project uses it. — markspace, Aug 08 '19 at 02:43
Yes I can see it's there. updated the screenshot in question section. — Avhi, Aug 08 '19 at 02:47
Did you restart IntelliJ after you installed the lombok plugin? — Matt Berteaux, Aug 08 '19 at 03:30

@MattBerteaux Yes, restarted after both the steps-Enable annotation processing and plugin installation. — Avhi, Aug 08 '19 at 12:59
Do you have problems in test classes? There have been some reports that to make that work you need to add lombok and the annotation processor to the test scope as well. — Roel Spilker, Aug 20 '19 at 08:58
Proberbly some dependencies don't meet the current requirements of lombox — Reporter, Oct 08 '20 at 13:32
Does lombox work if you using a current version of IntelliJ ? — Reporter, Oct 08 '20 at 13:36

In my case, I forgot the test dependency:

testCompileOnly 'org.projectlombok:lombok:1.18.22'
testAnnotationProcessor 'org.projectlombok:lombok:1.18.22'

Gradle 4.10, java1.8, Intellij Idea 2018.3.2

I had the same problem, after change git branch in intellij. The solution is:

on project panel (left side) right click on pom.xml file
click on "Add as Maven Project"

Import a gradle project as maven project? Doesn't make any sense. – dtrunk Nov 03 '21 at 18:00

Try to setup the scope directly. Example for maven:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
    <artifactId>lombok</artifactId>
    <version>1.18.22</version>
    <scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>

In order for intelliJ to be able to read lombok at compile time, you would have to update annotation processor settings in the IDE and then add the plugin for lombok.

Please refer to this link for details about how to do the above said changes.

I met exactly the same issue, but couldn't let it go after tried all solutions I could found in stackoverflow.

Eventually, I fixed it, by changing Preferences - Build, Execution, deployment > Build Tools > Gradle:

Build and run using: Gradle (Default) // it was Intellij IDEA

Run tests using: Gradle (Default) // it was Intellij IDEA

Gradle JVM: 11 // use 8 and above

Not sure if this is the right answer, but any of you have this issue can try. I believe it's just the IntelliJ setting caused problem.

I have tried all the above answers, it didn't work for me. Also I have also tried adding -Djps.track.ap.dependencies=false in so many places but not solved the problem.

Try deleting .idea folder which is inside your project and then after mvn clean install it solved the problem.

While there is an answer to this question, it would be better if the main part of the answer is on the post. – yusuf hayırsever Feb 25 '21 at 06:04

for me:

I downmoad "lombok.jar" for origine site "https://projectlombok.org/download".
in intellij IDE, File => Preject Structure => Librairies.
click to button "+" to add librairies => java => file "lombok.jar" that's works for me
