Description

Description

Generates 2 classes with compilation errors.

  • ExampleMYProperty.java and the class name is ExampleMYProperty
  • ExampleMyproperty0.java and the class name is ExampleMyproperty.

imagen

The property name "myproperty" collides with the name of the schema component: "Example_MYProperty"
With another property name, for example "amyproperty" it will work and it will create 2 Java files with correct class name:

  • ExampleAmyproperty.java
  • ExampleMYProperty.java

In versions <=7.8.0 it only creates one Java file with compilation error, the class name has the first 'y' in lower case.
ExampleMYProperty.java -->class name ExampleMyproperty

Research direction

Start by running the provided mvn clean generate-sources reproduction with the Java generator and inspect the generated files and class names for the Example and Example_MYProperty schemas. Done means the generator produces compilable Java files with matching class and filename names, while the existing amyproperty case remains correct.
