September 28, 2021 - See here for code example for constructor based validation using Lombok. See here for code example for constructor based validation using Record. See here for code example for constructor based validation using standard Java Class. The current implementation for Records do not account for building objects fluently, i.e. var vehicle = Vehicle.builder() .id(UUID.randomUUID()) .engine(Engine.builder.build()) .build();

May 16, 2025 - package org.example; import java.util.List; import lombok.Builder; @Builder public record Example(List<String> list) { }

There is no way to pass an explicit Comparator to use in the builder. An ArrayList is used to store added elements as call methods of a @Singular marked field, if the target collection is from the java.util package, even if the collection is a set or map. Because lombok ensures that generated collections are compacted, a new backing instance of a set or map must be constructed anyway, and storing the data as an ArrayList during the build process is more efficient that storing it as a map or set.

January 16, 2024 - In conclusion, records are better for smaller objects. Though, for objects with many fields, the lack of creational patterns will make Lombok’s @Builder a better option. We can use java records exclusively for immutable data.

August 21, 2023 - However, you can mix records with some Lombok, e.g. use a record plus Lombok's @Builder annotation: There's also a separate project, RecordBuilder, with similar functionality, without the other parts of Lombok that may make your teammates want to kill you.

May 5, 2021 - You can see that the semantic of holding data is there as well, but it's pretty weak and the focus is on deriving functionality, i.e. generating code. Indeed, data classes offer more class building tools than records (mutable "components", hidden state, ...), but unlike with Lombok, you can't use all of them (can't be extended, can't create your own copy method, ...).
