<code>@SuperBuilder</code> is not compatible with <code>@Builder</code>.

+ You can use <code>@SuperBuilder(toBuilder = true)</code> to also generate an instance method in your class called <code>toBuilder()</code>; it creates a new builder that starts out with all the values of this instance. You can put the <code>@Builder.ObtainVia</code> annotation on the fields to indicate alternative means by which the value for that field/parameter is obtained from this instance. For example, you can specify a method to be invoked: <code>@Builder.ObtainVia(method = "calculateFoo")</code>.

To ensure type-safety, <code>@SuperBuilder</code> generates two inner builder classes for each annotated class, one abstract and one concrete class named <code><em>Foobar</em>Builder</code> and <code><em>Foobar</em>BuilderImpl</code> (where <em>Foobar</em> is the name of the annotated class).
