How to configure annotations processing in IntelliJ IDEA 14 for current project work?
To solve these kind of problems need to use Analyze Module dependencies in InteliJ-idea.
File Menu > Analyze > Module Dependencies
This shows the list of all projects which have cyclic dependencies and should be resolved first.
This feature helps you to find the problem.
EDIT – For the latest version, it is Analyze -> Analyze Module Dependencies..
In addition to Mikhails answer, here is how to fix it:
When you saw which modules have cyclic dependencies, right-click your project and
Open Module Settings -> Expand the according module-group and select the module -> Dependencies -> select and remove it
If the circular dependency is wrong then open Module Settings and remove it from the module(s) that should not have it.
If the dependency is correct then uncheck the Enable annotation processing box in File | Settings | Build, Execution, Deployment | Compiler | Annotation Processors
