Migrating from SpringBoot 2.7.1 to 3.2.3 but Lombok @SuperBuilder is not working getting error: cannot find symbol

[gbhambale5143]

Hi Team, I am migrating from SpringBoot 2.7.1 to 3.2.3 but Lombok @SuperBuilder is not working getting below error.

cannot find symbol.
private void fillInUserReportFields(UserReport.**UserReportBuilder**<?,?> builder,
  symbol:   class UserReportBuilder
  location: class UserReport

I was using lombok 1.18.30 version.

Also tried with below versions as well 1.18.32, 1.18.28, 1.18.22, 1.18.26

Please find the code below:

@Setter @Getter  @SuperBuilder @EqualsAndHashCode(callSuper = false)
@JsonPropertyOrder({"userId", "location" })
public class **UserReport** extends MessageBase
{

  @JsonProperty(value = "userId", required = true)
  private Integer      userId;
  
  @JsonProperty(value = "location", required = true)
  private String       location;
 


  public UserReport (String userId, String location)
  {
    this.userId = Optional.ofNullable(userId).orElse(-1);
    this.location = Optional.of(location).filter(StringUtils::isNotBlank).orElse(null);
  }

	
}

@Service
public class **MessageService**
{

             //method
  private void fillInUserReportFields(**UserReport.UserReportBuilder**<?,?> builder,
                                         UserEvent event)
  {
   
   //body
   
}

@Data
@SuperBuilder @JsonPropertyOrder({ "messageType", "messageNumber"})
public class MessageBase
{
  private static final Logger LOGGER = LogManager.getLogger();

  @NotNull @NotBlank
  private String messageType;
  @NotNull @NotBlank
  private int messageNumber;
  private Integer requestNumber;

}

I had a similar error when upgrading from 3.0 to 3.3 In my case there was a minor error related to Fields.UNDERSCORE_ID which is not a constant anymore. But this was trigerring the unrelated Lombok errors.

So check your errors carefully :-)
