[Java] Enums are renamed - why??

Description

Enum values are renamed in generated Java classes - compared to what I write in the schema.

This "feature" was already reported several times (in the swagger-codegen project)

• https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-codegen/issues/5932
• https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-codegen/issues/7725
  but I just noticed this now by my own.

I found even a closed MR (in the swagger-codegen project at least)

• https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-codegen/pull/4331
  which seems to touch this topic (and code looks good)
  but this option/if/ whatever is not present in DefaultCodegenConfig

My question first of all would be: why? Why was such a mechanism introduced at all?
What do I miss?? What is the benefit / intention by doing this?

Does anyone know the answer for this?

In DefaultCodegenConfig there is a method findCommonPrefixOfVars() which is used in Enums generation and at the end of the day leads to renaming Enums.
Since this thing is sitting in DefaultCodegenConfig although not verified maybe happening in other languages too not just Java. For Java it is there for sure.

Version

1.0.36-SNAPSHOT (current master - when I file this problem)

Start with DefaultCodegenConfig.findCommonPrefixOfVars() and trace how it is used during Java enum generation. Compare the generated enum names with the schema values, then review the referenced swagger-codegen issues and pull request for the intended behavior. Done requires a documented decision about whether renaming is expected and a clearly scoped change or regression test.
