</project>

And in the view of Outline I don't see the getters and setters when I select the window of my class This is the sourcecode of my Etudiant class:

package hr.access.entities;

import java.util.Date;

import javax.persistence.Column;
import javax.persistence.Entity;
import javax.persistence.GeneratedValue;
import javax.persistence.GenerationType;
import javax.persistence.Id;
import javax.persistence.Temporal;
import javax.persistence.TemporalType;

import lombok.AllArgsConstructor;
import lombok.Data;
import lombok.NoArgsConstructor;

@Entity
@Data
@AllArgsConstructor
@NoArgsConstructor
public class Etudiant {

@Id
@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)
private Long id;
@Column(length = 80)
private String nom;
@Column(length = 80)
private String prenom;
@Temporal(TemporalType.DATE)
private Date dateNaissance;

}

What is my mistake in this code what do you write and add to my code because my class is correctly?

Answer 1

if your problem is that you don't see the getters and setters that's not a problem as lombok provide it in compile time in Etudiant.class file but you must use lombok plugin in your IDE

setup guide https://projectlombok.org/setup/overview

Answer 2

This should work, try it;

1. The project has lombok dependency. First look into your .m2 repository and if not ,find the lombok jar!
2. Double click on jar, specify the path for IDE like C:\\Users\\ide\\install\\package\\yourIDE.exe
3. Restart the IDE and update the maven project.

Answer 3

LomBok has a jar inside m2 folder (mvn cache folder) eg: C:\\Users\\Mypc \\ .m2 \\repository\\org\\projectlombok\\lombok\\1.18.12 based on the mvn package that has to be executed it will search for ide

and then you need to restart your ide then if you search within the class you can see getter and setters
