Description

The REST API we use sometimes returns 200/201 status codes (on PUT/POST requests), but with an empty body. This produces an error:

ErrorType? domain: unable to read data - code: 4294961290

Is this caused by swagger codegen, or is this an Alamofire issue?
(it works fine with our Android Retrofit export)

Research direction

No source file or test is named. Start by reproducing a generated Swift client request that receives a 200 or 201 response with an empty body, then trace whether the failure occurs in generated response handling or Alamofire decoding; done means successful empty-body responses no longer produce the reported error.
