Description
Description
In #2972, #6108, #5478, and many others there are complaints about old libraries/annotations being used in various Java generators. As a user of OpenAPI Generator who works in a number of Java toolkits/frameworks, I would like to see the AbstractJavaCodegen and all child generators updated to allow the use of the latest annotations and features of OpenAPI.
