body: <p>How to configure IntelliJ IDEA correctly to process annotations? </p>
  
  <p>Using the maven target <code>processor:process</code> works fine, but how do I process without using the maven target in IntelliJ IDEA (using it's Annotation Processing preferences)?</p>
  
  <p>Under IntelliJ's preferences / Annotation Processors, I have the following setting:
  "<code>Enable annotation processing</code>" is checked, with option "<code>Obtain processors from project classpath</code>"</p>
  
  <p>I leave the "<code>Annotation Processors</code>" section empty, since it should be found through the classpath automatically I assume.
  Under processed module I select my Android module and '<code>target/generated-sources/apt</code>' as the '<code>Generated Sources Directory Name</code>'.</p>
  
  <p>In my project structure, I have the module dependencies "<code>Maven: com.googlecode.androidannotations:androidannotations:2.6</code>" and "<code>Maven: com.googlecode.androidannotations:androidannotations:api:2.6</code>" set so that I have the processor in my classpath.</p>
  
  <p>But building the project doesn't process the annotations, and instead I get a warning '<code>Annotation processing without compilation requested but no processors were found.</code>'</p>
  
  <p>And if I try to set the Annotation Processor manually to '<code>com.googlecode.androidannotations.AndroidAnnotationProcessor</code>' and choosing '<code>/path/to/libs/androidannotations-2.6-api.jar</code>' as the path to the processor, I'm getting the error "Annotation processor '<code>com.googlecode.androidannotations.AndroidAnnotationProcessor</code>' not found" when trying to build the project.</p>
