Maven annotation processor (of MapStruct) raise compilation failure [duplicate] - mapstruct

Question

Tech Stack being used :
Java 8
MapStruct : 1.2.0.Final
Lombok: 1.16.18
IDE: IntelliJ - Lombok Plugin already installed
Initially, I faced issues when I removed getters and setters and added #Getter and #Setter annotation, mapstruct is not able to find the property and says: Unknown property "id" in result type com.vg.once.dto.OneDto. Did you mean "null"?
I came to know that Lombok 1.16.14 or newer along with MapStruct 1.2.0.Beta1 or newer are compatible and can work together, but my versions are newer then the desired still the issue is arising.
One more solution that I have already tried is running Lombok's Delombok plugin, but still, the same issue is arising.
Below are the project files :
The Entity Object: One.java:
import lombok.Getter;
import lombok.Setter;
#Getter
#Setter
public class One {
private int id;
private Integer version;
private int projectId;
private String title;
private String code;
private int sortOrder;
}
The DTO Object: OneDTO.java :
import lombok.Getter;
import lombok.Setter;
#Getter
#Setter
public class OneDto {
private int id;
private Integer version;
private int projectId;
private String title;
private String code;
private int sortOrder;
}
Mapper Class : OneMapper.java
import org.mapstruct.Mapper;
import org.mapstruct.Mapping;
import com.vg.once.dto.OneDto;
import com.vg.once.entity.One;
#Mapper
public interface OneMapper {
#Mapping(target="id", source="one.id")
OneDto createOne (One one);
}

please share how can i get this working using both Lombok and MapStruct together?

Answer 1

The reason why it does not work is because Maven only uses the MapStruct processor and not the Lombok one. The annotationProcessorPaths tells maven which processors it should use.
The delombok does nothing as you are ending up with 2 files per class and I think that the maven compiler does not see them.
You have 2 options:
Option 1: Add the lombok dependency in the annotationProcessorPaths
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.6.1</version>
<configuration>
<source>${java.version}</source>
<target>${java.version}</target>
<annotationProcessorPaths>
<path>
<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
<artifactId>lombok</artifactId>
<version>${org.projectlombok.version}</version>
</path>
<!-- This is needed when using Lombok 1.18.16 and above -->
<path>
<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
<artifactId>lombok-mapstruct-binding</artifactId>
<version>0.2.0</version>
</path>
<!-- Mapstruct should follow the lombok path(s) -->
<path>
<groupId>org.mapstruct</groupId>
<artifactId>mapstruct-processor</artifactId>
<version>${org.mapstruct.version}</version>
</path>
</annotationProcessorPaths>
</configuration>
</plugin>
Option 2:
Add the mapstruct-processor dependency to your dependencies and remove the annotationProcessorPaths. This way the maven compiler will pick up all the annotation processors that are in your dependencies.
I would advise in using Option 1, as with that you can be certain that you are not using some MapStruct transitive dependencies and internal classes in your code.
Edit:
To make sure that the IntelliJ annotation processing also works you will have to add the mapstruct-processor as a provided dependency due to IDEA-150621. IntelliJ in the moment does not use the annotationProcessorPaths from Maven to configure the project correctly.
Edit 2:
Add information and comment about lombok-mapstruct-binding needed from Lombok 1.18.16.

Answer 2

Just in case if somebody is looking for how to configure it using Gradle:
dependencies {
// Lombok
compileOnly 'org.projectlombok:lombok:1.18.2'
annotationProcessor 'org.projectlombok:lombok:1.18.2'
// MapStruct
compileOnly 'org.mapstruct:mapstruct-jdk8:1.2.0.Final'
annotationProcessor 'org.mapstruct:mapstruct-processor:1.2.0.Final'
}

Answer 3

After multiple attempts in my Spring Boot Maven project, the following finally worked:
Configuration of pom.xml:
The properties section:
<properties>
<project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>
<maven.compiler.target>11</maven.compiler.target>
<maven.compiler.source>11</maven.compiler.source>
<version.lombok>1.18.18</version.lombok>
<version.mapstruct>1.4.2.Final</version.mapstruct>
<version.mapstruct-lombok>0.2.0</version.mapstruct-lombok>
</properties>
The dependencies section:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
<artifactId>lombok</artifactId>
<version>${version.lombok}</version>
<optional>true</optional>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.mapstruct</groupId>
<artifactId>mapstruct</artifactId>
<version>${version.mapstruct}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
<artifactId>lombok-mapstruct-binding</artifactId>
<version>${version.mapstruct-lombok}</version>
</dependency>
The build plugins section:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.5.1</version>
<configuration>
<source>9</source>
<target>9</target>
<annotationProcessorPaths>
<path>
<groupId>org.mapstruct</groupId>
<artifactId>mapstruct-processor</artifactId>
<version>${version.mapstruct}</version>
</path>
<path>
<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
<artifactId>lombok</artifactId>
<version>${version.lombok}</version>
</path>
<path>
<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
<artifactId>lombok-mapstruct-binding</artifactId>
<version>${version.mapstruct-lombok}</version>
</path>
</annotationProcessorPaths>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
Hope this helps, my mapper before did not map the field values, but now these are mapper between the source and the target + the nested list of elements in each is also being mapped along with field values.

Answer 4

For me solution was realy simple.
The order of the processors was important.
In my case mapstruct processor was defined before lombok processor. In case with bad order mapstruct does not generate mappings, just create instance of result class (i saw that in generated implementation).
My plugin configuration with right order:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>${maven.compiler.plugin.version}</version>
<configuration>
<source>15</source>
<target>15</target>
<compilerArgs>--enable-preview</compilerArgs>
<annotationProcessorPaths>
<path>
<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
<artifactId>lombok</artifactId>
<version>${lombok.version}</version>
</path>
<path>
<groupId>org.mapstruct</groupId>
<artifactId>mapstruct-processor</artifactId>
<version>${mapstruct.version}</version>
</path>
</annotationProcessorPaths>
</configuration>
</plugin>
And of course you need to add dependencies:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
<artifactId>lombok</artifactId>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.mapstruct</groupId>
<artifactId>mapstruct</artifactId>
<version>${mapstruct.version}</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>

Answer 5

I had similar issues. Turned out my MapStruct version was outdated!
I used MapStruct version 1.1.0.Final, but for Lombok support at least 1.2.0.Final is required.

Answer 6

If anyone is reading this when using the latest Lombok and Mapstruct library versions:-
If you are using Lombok 1.18.16 or newer then you also need to add lombok-mapstruct-binding in order to make Lombok and MapStruct work together.

Answer 7

I feel a right way to declare versions in pom.xml is to refer to something like this for versions instead of manually specifying versions of everything. e.g. maven-compiler-plugin.version, lombok.version is already present there
properties block -
<properties>
<java.version>11</java.version>
<mapstruct.version>1.4.2.Final</mapstruct.version>
<lombok-mapstruct-binding.version>0.2.0</lombok-mapstruct-binding.version>
</properties>
dependencies block -
<dependencies>
<!-- ... -->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
<artifactId>lombok</artifactId>
<optional>true</optional>

Answer 8

For issues after upgrading Intellij to 2020.3 version, following solution worked for me.
Use lombok version: 1.18.16, lombok-mapstruct-binding: 0.2.0
<dependency>
<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
<artifactId>lombok</artifactId>
<version>1.18.16</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
<artifactId>lombok-mapstruct-binding</artifactId>
<version>0.2.0</version>
</dependency>
Change the order of the lombok and mapstruct plugin path in annotation processing section of plugins:
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.5.1</version>
<configuration>
<source>11</source>
<target>11</target>
<annotationProcessorPaths>
<path>
<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
<artifactId>lombok</artifactId>
<version>${org.projectlombok.version}</version>
</path>
<path>
<groupId>org.mapstruct</groupId>
<artifactId>mapstruct-processor</artifactId>
<version>${org.mapstruct.version}</version>
</path>
</annotationProcessorPaths>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>

Answer 9

Apparently this is how you are supposed to load multiple annotation processors in Gradle
dependencies {
implementation "org.mapstruct:mapstruct:1.4.2.Final", "org.projectlombok:lombok:1.18.20"
annotationProcessor "org.mapstruct:mapstruct-processor:1.4.2.Final", "org.projectlombok:lombok:1.18.20", "org.projectlombok:lombok-mapstruct-binding:0.2.0"
}

Answer 10

If someone is still looking for this answer, I faced a similar issue with JOOQ + MapStruct Integration. The answer is the order of paths matters

Answer 11

The mapstruct was just returning a null instance. Recently I upgraded the Intellij version to 2020.3, and spring boot 2.4.0, and landed into this situation.
When I changed the spring version to 2.3.o.RELEASE, I could see after compilation is that mapstruct was building the mappings properly.
Going through the post that mapstruct has recently updated.. but it will take time.. :) so, for now, I moved from maven to Gradle project and all working absolutely fine.. sounds weird but true...
I would be thankful if anyone would post what exactly the right issue and what's the solution.

Answer 12

For people who uses build gradle, this is the .gradle file I successfully created
dependencies {
compileOnly 'org.projectlombok:lombok'
annotationProcessor 'org.projectlombok:lombok'
implementation "org.projectlombok:lombok-mapstruct-binding:${gradleMapstructVersion}"
implementation "org.mapstruct:mapstruct:${mapstructVersion}"
annotationProcessor "org.mapstruct:mapstruct-processor:${mapstructVersion}"
}
The things is that, as said above, we have to use the org.projectlombok:lombok-mapstruct-binding in order to use mapstruct with lombok

Answer 13

I agree that the order does play its role, also when using gradle. In my case it was failing as soon I was adding subprojects { ... dependencyManagement{}} to the parent build.gradle in a multimodule setup.

Answer 14

If you have reached till here, that means none of the above solutions worked for you. Finally what worked for me was:
The following order of annotation processor in pom.xml
<annotationProcessorPaths>
...
<path>
<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
<artifactId>lombok</artifactId>
<version>1.18.20</version>
</path>
<path>
<groupId>org.mapstruct</groupId>
<artifactId>mapstruct-processor</artifactId>
<version>${mapstruct.version}</version>
</path>
<path>
<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
<artifactId>lombok-mapstruct-binding</artifactId>
<version>0.2.0</version>
</path>
...
</annotationProcessorPaths>
The following setting of Annotation Processors in Intellij IDEA Preferences. Make sure your project is in the right profile. In my case the profile is Annotation Profile for Alippo and project is alippo. I really don't know how the configuration made the difference.

Answer 15

For Spring-Boot the simplest configuration with exclude processing code from result jar:
pom.xml
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.mapstruct</groupId>
<artifactId>mapstruct</artifactId>
<version>${mapstruct.version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
<artifactId>lombok-mapstruct-binding</artifactId>
<version>0.2.0</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.mapstruct</groupId>
<artifactId>mapstruct-processor</artifactId>
<version>${mapstruct.version}</version>
</dependency>
....
</dependencies>
<build>
<plugins>
<!-- exclude from jar-->
<plugin>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<excludes>
<exclude>
<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
<artifactId>lombok</artifactId>
</exclude>
<exclude>
<groupId>org.projectlombok</groupId>
<artifactId>lombok-mapstruct-binding</artifactId>
</exclude>
<exclude>
<groupId>org.mapstruct</groupId>
<artifactId>mapstruct</artifactId>
</exclude>
</excludes>
</configuration>
</plugin>
...
</plugins>
</build>
Without lombok-mapstruct-binding it also works fine.
Maybe somebody comments, what for does it needed?

Answer 16

It is enough to add the following dependencies:
implementation("org.mapstruct:mapstruct:1.4.2.Final")
annotationProcessor("org.mapstruct:mapstruct-processor:1.4.2.Final")
compileOnly("org.projectlombok:lombok")
annotationProcessor("org.projectlombok:lombok")
annotationProcessor("org.projectlombok:lombok-mapstruct-binding:0.2.0")
