how to configure lombok in eclipse luna

Solution 1:

Disclosure: I am one of the lombok developers. I might be biased :-)

I strongly suggest installing Lombok via executing the lombok jar: java -jar lombok.jar The spaces in the path might be a problem.

Also, you'll need to use lombok version 1.14.8 (or higher) to have Luna support.

Please check in the About Eclipse screen if lombok is installed correctly.
