Java - Annotation processor - method process not called

Question

I am trying to implement AnnotationProcessor. I am following this tutorial.

I am able to debug the annotation processor, and the debugger goes to methods: init, getSupportedAnnotationTypes, getSupportedOptions ,getSupportedSourceVersion but it does not go to process method.

I was unable to find something useful on the internet. Could you please tell me why is this happening and how to fix it?

Thank you.

I just found out that in order to run the process method. At least one element must be annotated with an annotation that was set in getSupportedAnnotationTypes.
