JDT LS 1.63's ECJ 3.46.200 keeps a constructor's super()/this() call as the first of its statements. Lombok 1.18.48 wrapped that call in the @SneakyThrows try block (ECJ internal error, whole workspace build failed), emitted @NonNull checks before it, and generated constructors without it. The bundled agent is now 1.18.48-openidea.2: v1.18.48 with lombok#4059 and the upstream constructor-call fix lombok#4089. The new file name gives JDT LS a new workspace, so classes from the previous agent are rebuilt. Fixes #1000 Fixes #830
Lombok agent for JDT LS
lombok-1.18.48-openidea.2.jar is the app-provided Java agent for JDT LS. It includes:
- projectlombok/lombok#4059, which restores
lombok.configlookup after Equinox removedgetModuleClassLoader(boolean). - projectlombok/lombok#4089 (fixes
lombok#4084 / #4094). ECJ 3.46.200, bundled with JDT LS 1.63, keeps a constructor's explicit or
implicit
super()/this()call as the first element of its statements. Lombok 1.18.48 wrapped that call in the@SneakyThrowstry block (ECJ then fails with "Internal Error compiling … BlockScope cannot be cast to MethodScope" and the whole workspace build fails) and put@NonNullchecks before it; constructors Lombok generates lacked the statement.
The jar is embedded by ide-tools, so every platform receives the same bytes without a download.
Both Java server startup and launch diagnostics obtain it through managed_bundle. Tool detection
reports the same version and path, replacing older IDE-installed official agents automatically.
An explicit user -javaagent still takes precedence. Project Maven/Gradle dependencies are unchanged.
The filename includes the patch version because JDT LS workspace keys include the agent path;
changing agents must rebuild classes produced by the old agent. Old jars remain for running windows.
Replace this temporary bundle with an official Maven Central release once that release includes #4059 and #4089. Restore the registry's Maven Central install method and remove the embedded jar. Keep the workspace migration test when changing its path.

The changelog context conflicts because the first commit adds a release-note line under the
older development heading and the second removes it. Resolve mechanically by adding then removing
only that line, retaining the complete v1.18.48 changelog (the second commit is then empty and
skipped). The #4089 commits apply cleanly. The final source diff from v1.18.48 changes
src/eclipseAgent/lombok/launch/PatchFixesHider.java, test/core/src/lombok/TestEclipse.java,
test/core/src/lombok/launch/PatchFixesHiderTest.java (#4059) and the Eclipse handlers
EclipseHandlerUtil, HandleConstructor, HandleFieldNameConstants, HandleNonNull,
HandleSneakyThrows, HandleStandardException, HandleSuperBuilder, HandleUtilityClass (#4089);
no other Java source changes were made.
In the build checkout, the two remote resolvers in
buildScripts/ivysettings.xml were reordered to try Maven Central before Eclipse staging; the
local resolver and all dependency coordinates were retained. The JVM was configured to use the
local HTTP/HTTPS proxy for downloads. Ant's timestamps mean a rebuild need not be byte-identical;
SHA256SUMS records the checked-in artifact and is verified by the Rust regression tests.
Validation
A parent POM with DTO and application modules uses Lombok 1.18.46. Root lombok.config enables
config.stopBubbling = true and lombok.accessors.chain = true.
On macOS arm64 with JDT LS 1.63.0 / Equinox 3.25.0, server OpenJDK 25 and project JDK 21:
- Official 1.18.46 and 1.18.48 agents generated
voidsetters; the following Maven incremental build reused the DTO classes and failed withvoid cannot be dereferenced. - This agent passed five fresh project/workspace builds.
javapconfirmed setters returning the DTO class; the following Maven incremental install passed. - Without
lombok.config, both official 1.18.48 and patched agents built successfully and produced identicaljavapoutput, including defaultvoidsetters. - Upstream
PatchFixesHiderTestpassed both the standard OSGi and legacy Equinox lookup tests.
