Adding annotation to one package is now causing warning

I have been using all sorts of annotations with success. I just added “javax.annotations.Nullable” to a package and now I am getting this warning:

warning: Implicitly compiled files were not subject to annotation processing.

Use -proc:none to disable annotation processing or -implicit to specify a policy for implicit compilation.

1 warning

I have used Nullable in quite a few other places without difficulty. What is going on here?

Apparently you have both source code (e.g. in some Jar) and annotation processors on the compile class path, which will ultimately cause this warning. See ‘-implicit’ in the javac documentation.
