Lombok added but getters and setters not recognized in Intellij IDEA

People also ask

Does IntelliJ come with Lombok?

As of IntelliJ version 2020.3, we don't need to configure the IDE to use Lombok anymore. The IDE comes bundled with the plugin. Also, the annotation processing will be enabled automatically.


You need to install the Lombok plugin for IDEA. Open the Settings panel (Ctrl + Alt + S). Search for "Plugins", then search for "Lombok" in the plugins. Find the plugin and install it. Finally, restart your IDEA. Then everything will be OK!


I fixed it by ticking the "Enable annotation processing" checkbox in Settings->Compiler->Annotation Processors.

Along with this you might also need to install lombok plugin as mentioned in @X.Chen's answer for new versions of IntelliJ Idea.


It is a combination of

  • Ticking the "Enable annotation processing" checkbox in Settings->Compiler->Annotation Processors.

    and

  • Install the plugin of Lombok for idea and restart for change to take effect.


If you are on Mac, make sure you enable annotation processing (tick the checkbox) at these 2 places.

1.) Intellij IDEA -> Preferences -> Compiler -> Annotation Processors

2.) File -> Other Settings -> Default Settings -> Compiler -> Annotation Processors

And then

3.) Intellij IDEA -> Preferences -> Plugins ->Browse Repositories-> Search for "Lombok"-> install plugin -> Apply and restart IDEA

4.) And then probably restart Intellij IDEA.

This is my IntelliJ IDEA and Mac Version - IntelliJ IDEA 2017.1.5 Build #IU-171.4694.70 --- Mac OS X 10.12


I had both the Lombok plugin installed and Annotation Processing enabled within IntelliJ and my syntax highlighting still wasn't working properly. This could have been due to the 2017 to 2018 IDEA upgrade. I was getting warnings "access exceeds rights" on private fields within classes I had used @Getter and @Setter on.

I had to uninstall the Lombok plugin, restart IntelliJ, then reinstall the plugin, and restart IntelliJ once more.

Everything is working good now.


It's possible that you already have the Lombok plugin, and still the generated methods are not recognised by Android Studio. In such case the plugin might be out of date, so the solution is to simply update it.

Preferences -> Plugins -> Lombok Plugin -> Update Plugin


  1. Go to File > Settings > Plugins.
    1. Click on Browse repositories...
    2. Search for Lombok Plugin.
    3. Click on Install plugin.
    4. Restart Android Studio.
