Description

Hello, i'm using the latest snapshot of openapi-generator ( 5.0.0-SNAPSHOT ).

Here is the maven plugin is use :

                        <execution>
                            <id>Generate Spring</id>
                            <goals>
                                <goal>generate</goal>
                            </goals>
                            <configuration>
                                <inputSpec>${project.basedir}/src/main/resources/swagger/api.yml</inputSpec>
                                <output>${project.build.directory}/generated-sources/openapi/java</output>
                                <generatorName>spring</generatorName>
                                <instantiationTypes>array=HashSet</instantiationTypes>
                                <typeMappings>array=Set</typeMappings>
                                <importMappings>Set=java.util.Set,HashSet=java.util.HashSet</importMappings>
                            </configuration>
                        </execution>

I tried <importMappings>Set=java.util.Set</importMappings> ( without HashSet ) too.
The code is referencing Set but doesn't import the class.
