Any code that uses @ SneakyThrows will cause an exception when compiling with Java 8:

warning: Error during the transformation of 'com.my.Class'; post-compiler 'lombok.bytecode.SneakyThrowsRemover' caused an exception: null

I'm using Lombok 1.12.6 on the newly released JDK 1.8.0 for Mac OS X 10.8.5.

D'oh, of course. New class file format. We're on it, thanks for reporting.

Updated to ASM5 and that fixes it. There's an edge release that should @ SneakyThrows appropriately even with -target 1.8:

I just tried again with lombok-edge, compiling from IntelliJ IDEA 12, and I still get the same error.

Edge release works fine in NetBeans 8.0 (JDK 8u5).

It appears that compile-on-save files in NB have this issue

I got this in IntelliJ after replacing stable version with edge:
Error:java: Bad service configuration file, or exception thrown while constructing Processor object: javax.annotation.processing.Processor: Provider lombok.launch.AnnotationProcessorHider.AnnotationProcessor not found

When is this going to be released?

It is a known bug in the current edge release. If you want to, you can modify the jar yourself by modifying the file META-INF/services/javax.annotation.processing.Processor. The last period on the only line in the file should be replaced by a dollar sign.

I expect to be able to build a new edge somewhere next week.

After replacing the file META-INF/services/javax.annotation.processing.Processor, i faced an issue : when there is two signatures for a method (@ NoArgsConstructor
@ RequiredArgsConstructor) , it accepts only one
