Annotation Type Accessors

@Target({TYPE,FIELD})
@Retention(SOURCE)
public @interface Accessors
A container for settings for the generation of getters and setters.

Complete documentation is found at the project lombok features page for @Accessors.

Using this annotation does nothing by itself; an annotation that makes lombok generate getters and setters, such as Setter or Data is also required.

  • Element Details

    • fluent

      boolean fluent
      If true, accessors will be named after the field and not include a get or set prefix. If true and chain is omitted, chain defaults to true. default: false
      Returns:
      Whether or not to make fluent methods (named fieldName(), not for example setFieldName).
      Default:
      false

    • chain

      boolean chain
      If true, setters return this instead of void. default: false, unless fluent=true, then default: true
      Returns:
      Whether or not setters should return themselves (chaining) or void (no chaining).
      Default:
      false

    • prefix

      java.lang.String[] prefix
      If present, only fields with any of the stated prefixes are given the getter/setter treatment. Note that a prefix only counts if the next character is NOT a lowercase character or the last letter of the prefix is not a letter (for instance an underscore). If multiple fields all turn into the same name when the prefix is stripped, an error will be generated.
      Returns:
      If you are in the habit of prefixing your fields (for example, you name them fFieldName, specify such prefixes here).
      Default:
      {}
