Description

We have a class as following :

Class Alpha <T extends Serializable> implements Serializable {

 T x;

}
Above class will generate Serializable as an Object Type in swagger.json

"Serializable" : {
"type": "object",
"title: :" Serializable"
}
Subsequently, this will result in generation of Serializable Type and compilation fails
