By annotating one of the parameters (if annotating a method or constructor with <code>@Builder</code>) or fields (if annotating a class with <code>@Builder</code>) with the <code>@Singular</code> annotation, lombok will treat that builder node as a collection, and it generates 2 'adder' methods instead of a 'setter' method. One which adds a single element to the collection, and one which adds all elements of another collection to the collection. No setter to just set the collection (replacing whatever was already added) will be generated. A 'clear' method is also generated. These 'singular' builders are very complicated in order to guarantee the following properties:

Even if a field is explicitly initialized with <code>null</code>, lombok will consider the requirement to avoid null as fulfilled, and will <em>NOT</em> consider the field as a 'required' argument. The assumption is that if you explicitly assign <code>null</code> to a field that you've also marked as <code>@NonNull</code> signals you must know what you're doing.

- The <code>@java.beans.ConstructorProperties</code> annotation is never generated for a constructor with no arguments. This also explains why <code>@NoArgsConstructor</code> lacks the <code>suppressConstructorProperties</code> annotation method. The <code>@ConstructorProperties</code> annotation is also omitted for private constructors. The generated static factory methods also do not get <code>@ConstructorProperties</code>, as this annotation can only be added to real constructors.

<p>
The reason of the weird syntax is to make this feature work in javac 7 compilers; the <code>@__</code> type is an annotation reference to the annotation type <code>__</code> (double underscore) which doesn't actually exist; this makes javac 7 delay aborting the compilation process due to an error because it is possible an annotation processor will later create the <code>__</code> type. Instead, lombok applies the annotations and removes the references so that the error will never actually occur. The point is: The <code>__</code> type <em>must not exist</em>, otherwise the feature does not work. In the rare case that the <code>__</code> type does exist (and is imported or in the package), you can simply add more underscores. Technically any non-existent type would work, but to maintain consistency and readability and catch erroneous use, lombok considers it an error if the 'wrapper' annotation is anything but a series of underscores.

+ In javac8, the above feature should work but due to a bug in javac8 it does not. However, starting in javac8, if the parameter name does not exist in the annotation type, compilation proceeds to a phase where lombok can fix it.
+ </p><p>
To reiterate: This feature can disappear at any time; if you use this feature, be prepared to adjust your code when we find a nicer way of implementing this feature, or, if a future version of javac forces us to remove this feature entirely with no alternative.

The <code>onX</code> parameter is not legal on any type-wide variant. For example, a <code>@Getter</code> annotation on a class does not support <code>onMethod</code>.
