Description
Description
Compilation fails for the Java/Feign generator when Feign 13 and above are used. The reason is version 13 adds an overload to the RetryableException constructor with type Long instead of Date, and the value is passed as null causing the compiler to fail to with following message:
[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.11.0:compile (default-compile) on project swagger-petstore-feign: Compilation failure
[ERROR] /Users/lucas.santos/work/code/swagger-codegen/samples/client/petstore/java/feign/src/main/java/io/swagger/client/auth/OAuth.java:[96,19] reference to RetryableException is ambiguous
[ERROR] both constructor RetryableException(int,java.lang.String,feign.Request.HttpMethod,java.lang.Throwable,java.lang.Long,feign.Request) in feign.RetryableException and constructor RetryableException(int,java.lang.String,feign.Request.HttpMethod,java.lang.Throwable,java.util.Date,feign.Request) in feign.RetryableException match
Description
The solution is simple, in this line:
throw new RetryableException(400, e.getMessage(), template.request().httpMethod(), e, null, template.request());
the type of the 5th parameter must be explicitly specified:
throw new RetryableException(400, e.getMessage(), template.request().httpMethod(), e, (Date) null, template.request());
This solution continues to use the deprecated version but keeps the generator compatible with versions that were already previously supported.

Research direction
Start with samples/client/petstore/java/feign/src/main/java/io/swagger/client/auth/OAuth.java at the RetryableException call around line 96. Check the Feign 13 constructor overloads and verify compilation with Feign 13 while preserving compatibility with previously supported versions.
