Description
The java generator/retrofit2 library does not appear to support anyOf. It generates a valid but empty Java class, which is missing all infrastructure for the specified types.

Generation Details
docker run --rm -v "${pwd}:/local" openapitools/openapi-generator-cli generate -i /local/test.yaml -g java -o /local/out/java --library=retrofit2 --additional-properties=annotationLibrary=none,openapiNullable=false
Steps to reproduce
- Save the provided yaml as
test.yaml - Run the specified docker command
- Observe the
ProcessorNameclass. It compiles, but only contains some generic Java basics, no way to specify either a string or aKnownProcessorName
Contributor guide

Research direction
Start with the provided test.yaml and run the Docker generation command for the java generator with the retrofit2 library. Inspect the generated ProcessorName class and how the anyOf schema is handled. Done means the generated class provides usable infrastructure for either a string or KnownProcessorName, rather than an effectively empty class.
