@EnableFlamingock annotation is mandatory error on incremental build in IntelliJ

[Christian-Aman]

Hi

When using IntelliJ to compile your project when you have made some changes it does not by default recompile the full project or module. And its way faster than if it would. The issue is that when the changed files does not include the file that have the @EnableFlamingock annotation flamingock throws an error during the build.

It would be great if one could continue to use intelliJs compiler using incremental builds while using flamingock. Do you think this is something that could be fixed?

The error thrown is: java: java.lang.RuntimeException: @EnableFlamingock annotation is mandatory. Please annotate a class with @EnableFlamingock to configure the pipeline.

All the best!

Hi @Christian-Aman

First of all, thank you very much for using Flamingock and for taking the time to report this issue—we really appreciate it.

We’ll take a look at this and get back to you as soon as possible.

Thank you

HI @Christian-Aman

We’ve taken a look at this, and it’s not a straightforward change — it would require refactoring how we generate metadata.

We’re currently reviewing and prioritising our backlog, and we want to take this into account as part of that process.

To help us prioritise it properly, could you let us know how critical this is for you? Is this blocking your work, or can you continue using Flamingock without it for now?

Thank you

Hi @davidfrigolet

Thanks for looking in to this! Unfortunately this would probably be a stopper for us from using Flamingock as it would change our workflow to a slower one to mitigate the issue.

All the best!
