[QUESTION][JAVA] Style Guide `google-java-format` for Generated Java Classes

Hello Java committee (and community)!

I would like some clarification surrounding the Style Guide for this project, as mentioned here (google-java-format).

There are many examples of generated Java classes that do not conform to this format. Hence, to what extent should this format be followed? Or, is it considered not worth the effort and it is expected that mvn spotless:apply will be ran on these files anyway?

From personal experience, working on openapi-to-java-records-mustache-templates, it is absolutely possible to better adhere/conform to the google-java-format - with the exception of user-provided values such as class/field names, descriptions, etc.

So, would it be...

• expected to follow the format?
• preferred to follow the format?
• not expected to follow the format?

Thanks in advance 😊

Start with the contributing Style Guide linked in the issue and review the referenced openapi-to-java-records-mustache-templates project for the formatting context. The issue needs a maintainer decision on the expected treatment of generated Java classes before any documentation or template changes can be defined as done.
