CAREFUL: lombok requires using the javac v1.6 compiler. If this is not your default compiler, you'll need to add the following to your
+ pom file to explicitly set the java compiler version to use:
+
<plugin>
+ <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
+ <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
+ <configuration>
+ <compilerVersion>1.6</compilerVersion>
+ <source>1.6</source>
+ <target>1.6</target>
+ </configuration>
+</plugin>
+
That's all there is to it!
note: You'll still need to download lombok, or doubleclick on the lombok.jar file downloaded by maven, to install lombok into your eclipse installation.
