I have made the getter with lombok annotation with its not letting me using metho chaining?

When using Lombok's @Getter annotation, method chaining might not work as expected due to the default behavior of the annotation. By default, Lombok generates a getter method for each field in your class, but it does not return 'this' at the end of the method.

To enable method chaining with Lombok getters, you can use the chain attribute of the @Getter annotation. Set chain=true to instruct Lombok to return 'this' at the end of the getter method, allowing you to chain multiple method calls together.

Example:

@Getter(chain = true)
public class MyClass {
    private String field1;
    private int field2;
}

Now you can use method chaining like this:

MyClass obj = new MyClass().setField1("value1").setField2(42);

Remember that enabling method chaining with Lombok may have implications on immutability and thread safety, so make sure it fits your design requirements before using it.

If you still encounter issues with method chaining after using @Getter(chain = true), ensure that your IDE is properly recognizing and compiling the Lombok annotations. You may need to enable annotation processing in your IDE settings for Lombok to work correctly.

Read the docs

#

"Supported configuration keys", second item

haughty grail
#

is this configuration configured globally?

#

or i need to configure this for each annotation

ripe roost
#

you can do it per package

#

or globally

#

lombok scans for a lombok.config in a predefined way

haughty grail
#

i am new to java how shall i define it globally.

#

i meant, should i create a configuration file

#

and put there?

ripe roost
#

You can create lombok.config files in any directory and put configuration directives in it. These apply to all source files in this directory and all child directories.

#

If you're new to Java I suggest not using lombok 🙂
