Re: Is anybody of you guys using GWT with Lombok?

FWIW, while I'm against Lombok because as others already said it's really hackish and fragile (see also https://groups.google.com/d/topic/bazel-discuss/ZRWdqJfYEPw/discussion, Bazel uses Error Prone as the Java compiler, which is more-or-less a "fork" of the OpenJDK compiler), we've been using Lombok on a GWT project (setup years ago, in "maintenance mode" nowadays, never bother removing Lombok from the equation). In that project, we've been using "delombok" to generate Java sources that can be used by GWT.

But my advice really is to avoid Lombok (JackDaw looks great; but your IDE is capable of generating almost all of what Lombok does, and for immutable value-objects I just use Auto Value from Google, or Immutables.Org)

HI!

I recently stepped over Lombok [1],[2] and saw that it can be used with GWT. Did anybody of you guys ever use it with GWT?

Does it pay off or is it unnecessary?
