Was able to resolve my issue. Did not realize that variables declared final had no setter.

I got the solution of this problem. I had to remove -proc:none that was preventing the lombok annotation to be processed.

It should be in the maven compiler plugin section in the pom file.

i don't know but it solve my problem.

i have two classes use @builder to generate build method. but one is normal, another is abnormal,everything check is ok. but when i run mvn to compile my project, the error as fellow:

can't not find the symbol method builder()

i try to replace the version of the lombok jar, but even through i make the version is latest, it's not ok.

so, i try to import lombok per class that i reference.

it works! it seems a bug.
