Building with Lombok's @Slf4j and Eclipse: Cannot find symbol log

Question

I have the lombok plugin in Eclipse and enabled annotation processing in Eclipse under java compiler, but still it is unable to recognize the log statements when I use @Slf4

Answer 1

this got the fix to me by adding the slf4j dependency, Lombok can identify the slf4j but does not get the download, this is true for java project if you are using spring boot then slf4j comes by default.

here are my dependencies

    
    
        org.slf4j
        slf4j-api
        1.7.25
    




    
        org.projectlombok
        lombok
        1.18.6
