Add the possibility to use @Getter on java 17 record on the different components.

Add the possibility to use @Getter on java 17 record on the different components.

The reason why is we don't know when you use a class if it is a record or a class and the way to retrieve attributes or components are different.

With lombok

@Getter
public record MyObject(int id) {
}

Generated

public record MyObject(int id) {

public int getId() {
return id;
}

}

This should not be ignored,
there are cases when one has to work with older frameworks that expect
getXxx naming conventions (Like velocity). In those cases it would be handy
to generate extra accessors.

We don't allow it now? Huh. Yeah, we should allow you to do this, no need to convince us :)

@rzwitserloot do you know if anyone is working on this? If not I'll try to get some time to do it

To clarify: it looks like @Getter currently works when applied to the record components themselves, but not to the class.

Working:

public record MyObject(@Getter int id) {
}

Not yet working

@Getter
public record MyObject(int id) {
}

There's a test for this. I wonder how it's not working.

OK, I see - the test was checking that it didn't work.
