Spring Boot+JPA+QueryDSL=OrderSpecifier not found

Question

I have this pom.xml:

<parent>
    <groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-boot-starter-parent</artifactId>
    <version>1.3.5.RELEASE</version>
</parent>

    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.mysema.querydsl</groupId>

    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>

        <artifactId>hsqldb</artifactId>

</dependencies>

    <build>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>com.mysema.maven</groupId>
                <artifactId>apt-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>1.1.3</version>
                <executions>
                    <execution>
                        <goals>

                        </goals>
                        <configuration>
                            <outputDirectory>target/generated-sources/java</outputDirectory>
                            <processor>com.querydsl.apt.jpa.JPAAnnotationProcessor</processor>
                        </configuration>
                    </execution>
                </executions>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>

And this Entity:

@Entity
@Data
@Builder
public class DataDto {
    @Id
    private String id;
    private String name;
}

And this Repo:

public interface DataRepo extends  JpaRepository <DataDto,String>, QueryDslPredicateExecutor<DataDto> {
}

I get this error:

Error:(9, 8) java: cannot access com.mysema.query.types.OrderSpecifier
  class file for com.mysema.query.types.OrderSpecifier not found

It sounds like I'm missing a dependency or something??

Add following dependency in the project

            <dependency>
                <groupId>com.querydsl</groupId>
                <artifactId>querydsl-jpa</artifactId>
                <version>4.0.3</version>
            </dependency>

Version number according to the your JPA version.
