@RequiredArgsConstructor
@Slf4j
@Component
public class ClassA{

private final Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(ClassA.class);
private final ExternalTaskService externalTaskService;

****ERROR

Can you explain exactly what you’re trying to do?
Are you trying to create an external task client in Java to complete work for a BPMN process?
