Description
If for some reason the graphQL type name provided by the server side starts with a non-capital letter (lower-case letter or a special symbol like underscore), the DGS plugin fails to generate code in Kotlin language, though it works fine with Java.
The error as follows:
FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
- What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':my:task:generateJava'.
couldn't make a guess for com.my.package.typeStartingWithNonCapitalLetter
Expected behavior: Kotlin code is generated successfully in case of types that start with non-capital letter.
