Intellij, Jackson oddities with variables starting with 'x'

[parry84]

I'm using Lombok 1.16.12 and IntelliJ Lombok plugin 0.14.16

Suppose I have a variable starting with 'x' as follow:

@Getter
@Setter
class MyModel {
    @JsonIgnore
    private String xMyField;
}

Suppose I have method using the generated getter as follow:

void myMethod(MyModel model) {
    println(model.getXMyField());
}

The code compiles and executes as expected but I face the following issues:

• With IntelliJ 2017.3, if I select 'xMyField' and click 'Find Usages' the IDE reports no usages, which is incorrect
• When serializing the model with Jackson, the 'xMyField' is included in the output despite the @JsonIgnore annotation.

If I remove the 'x' prefix (the variable is renamed 'myField') all the issues above disappears.

Regards,
Emanuele

I think you meant 2016.3

Yes it's 2016.3, thanks
