record-builder VS Persism

The problem with this approach is that the people will have to build crutches like https://github.com/Randgalt/record-builder and by the time Java adds missing features all the codebases will be forever polluted with legacy workarounds that nobody will dare to remove because of backwards compatibility.

It also hinders adoption of new features as people will prefer to maintain consistency in their codebases.

Record builder is pretty good for making builders for your Java 17 records

I always have to bring up RecordBuilder simply because of the included Withers and it being a source generator instead of the Lombok weirdness.

The above is not particularly user-friendly. Luckily compiler plugins can provide the missing feature, most notably RecordBuilder:

For records, instead of lombok you can use https://github.com/Randgalt/record-builder which is a valid annotation processor and will not break on JDK changes

In this particular case you can generate the builder with something like https://github.com/Randgalt/record-builder that is both valid java and lombok-like enough

Records + Record Builder or immutables + the trick to hide the implementing class w/sealed are your friend. Both the mutability and naming conventions this generates are vomitus.

Did you use https://github.com/Randgalt/record-builder ?

Try my annotation processor. It generates withers. https://github.com/Randgalt/record-builder

I personally don't use that one much, but you could use this library instead.

People would be much better off using Persism https://github.com/sproket/Persism

Yes, you do also have to add the mysql-connector-java-(version).jar to the classpath. If you run it in eclipse, it should show the command line it uses somewhere. BTW if you're looking for a simple streamlined ORM have a look at persism

If you use Java you might like Persism https://github.com/sproket/Persism if you need to do anything databases.

If you want to try a easy to use ORM have a look at Persism

It's not that good. It doesn't have persism on it yet https://github.com/sproket/Persism

Is there a reason it needs a dependency on Lombok? If you want a library to be used, the less dependencies the better. See mine. It has zero.
