From: Reinier Zwitserloot MapEntry.of("foo", 5) instead of the much longer
new MapEntry<String, Integer>("foo", 5).
+ To put annotations on the generated constructor, you can use onConstructor={@AnnotationsHere}. For more details see the documentation on the onX feature.

Static fields are skipped by these annotations. Also, a @java.beans.ConstructorProperties annotation is added for all constructors with at least 1 argument,
which allows bean editor tools to call the generated constructors. @ConstructorProperties is now in Java 1.6, which means that if your code is intended for
compilation on Java 1.5, a compiler error will occur. Running on a JVM 1.5 should be no problem (the annotation will be ignored). To suppress the generation of

You can always manually disable getter/setter generation for any field by using the special AccessLevel.NONE access level. This lets you override the
behaviour of a @Getter, @Setter or @Data annotation on a class.

+ To put annotations on the generated method, you can use onMethod={@AnnotationsHere}; to put annotations on the only parameter of a generated setter method, you can use onParam={@AnnotationsHere}. For more details see the documentation on the onX feature.
@Setter, you can specify an access level in case you want the generated wither to be something other than public:@Wither(level = AccessLevel.PROTECTED). Also like @Setter, you can also put a @Wither annotation on a type, which means
a 'wither' is generated for each field (even non-final fields).

+ This feature is considered 'workaround status' - it exists in order to allow users of lombok that cannot work without this feature to have access to it anyway. If we find a better way to implement this feature, or some future java version introduces an alternative strategy, this feature can disappear without a reasonable deprecation period. Also, this feature may not work in future versions of javac. Use at your own discretion. +
+ Most annotations that make lombok generate methods or constructors can be configured to also + make lombok put custom annotations on elements in the generated code. +
+ @Getter, @Setter, and @Wither support the onMethod
+ option, which will put the listed annotations on the generated method.
+
+ @AllArgsConstructor, @NoArgsConstructor, and @RequiredArgsConstructor support the onConstructor option which will put the listed annotations on the generated constructor.
+
+ @Setter and @Wither support onParam in addition to onMethod; annotations listed will be put on the only parameter that the generated method has.
+
+ None of the mentioned annotations above actually have parameters named onMethod, onParam, or onConstructor; nevertheless, if you type them, lombok will make it work. Unfortunately this does mean that auto-complete and other tool-driven convenience features will not work as expected. The annotations lack these parameters in order to work around javac limitations.
+
+ We can't think of any small print for this feature, other than 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. +
