See https://github.com/JimmyCushnie/SUCC for the official documentation. See the tests for examples.

Add the following repository into your project's pom.xml:

<repositories>
    <repository>
        <id>FalsePattern-maven-repo</id>
        <url>https://falsepattern.ddns.net/maven2/</url>
    </repository>
</repositories>

and then include Succ4J as a dependency:

<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.github.falsepattern</groupId>
        <artifactId>succ4j</artifactId>
        <version>VERSION</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

Replace VERSION with the version you want to use

Go to the succ4j repository, choose your version, download succ4j-VERSION.jar and add it as a dependency to your project.

1.2.0: Added annotation @GenericID, which can be used in generic classes to specify which generic type is used by a field based on an index (see ComplexChild.java in the tests for example)
