Hi there, I'm currently trying Manifold (http://manifold.systems) and I'm wondering about support for it in NetBeans. Manifold is in some ways similar to Lombok, in that it generates additional code while javac is running (but it is a javac plugin rather than an annotation processor). However, when trying it in NB 10 with the Manifold Maven sample project project and Java 11, Netbeans won't see Manifold-generated types and methods, highlighting code spots referencing them as errors.
Because Lombok used to work out of the box, I assumed this may be the case with Manifold as well (obviously it is not). I'd guess NB would just need to read the maven compiler plugin settings from the POM, compile with that and inspect whatever .class files were produced - but maybe it doesn't work like that... So I'm wondering: * Has anyone tried this before, and even had success? * If NB can't support it now, is support planned? Any ideas what would be necessary? Cheers, Uwe
