Description

Bar.java looks like this with openapi-generator-cli generate -g spring -i example.yml -o output:

  /**
   * The maximum value
   * @return foo
  */
  @Size(min = 1, max = 10) 
  @Schema(name = "foo", description = "The maximum value", required = false)
  public String getFoo() {
    return foo;
  }

With the schema remapped (--schema-mappings=Foo=com.example.Foo), it's missing @Size and description:

  /**
   * Get foo
   * @return foo
  */
  @Valid 
  @Schema(name = "foo", required = false)
  public com.example.Foo getFoo() {
    return foo;
  }

This is still an issue in 6.1.0.

to rename the model name Foo to something else, please use model name mapping feature instead:

Interesting... I wouldn't have thought that there even is a model name to be mapped, since there is no model for it (generated as a plain String).

(generated as a plain String).

Ah, an alias to String schema. Then the model name mapping won't work in this case.
