-If you are also using lombok in your project, you need to make sure that the `lombok` dependency is placed before the `spring-boot-configuration-processor` dependency.
-Otherwise, combining `lombok` annotations with `spring-boot-configuration-processor` annotations will not have the desired result.

+If you are using Lombok in your project, you need to make sure that its annotation processor runs before `spring-boot-configuration-processor`.
+To do so with Maven, you can list the annotation processors in the right order using the `annotationProcessors` attribute of the Maven compiler plugin.
+If you are not using this attribute, and annotation processors are picked up by the dependencies available on the classpath, make sure that the `lombok` dependency is defined before the  `spring-boot-configuration-processor` dependency.
