Description
Description
Currently, Java does not support Map of Map of String or other type
public class MapTest {
@SerializedName("map_map_of_string")
private Map<String, Map<String, String>> mapMapOfString = new HashMap<String, Map<String, String>>();
As shown above, the inner Map is not mapped to HashMap

The issue likely has to do with getTypeDeclaration in modules/swagger-codegen/src/main/java/io/swagger/codegen/languages/AbstractJavaCodegen.java

Research direction
Start in modules/swagger-codegen/src/main/java/io/swagger/codegen/languages/AbstractJavaCodegen.java, at getTypeDeclaration, and trace how nested Java Map types are handled. Done means the generated MapTest field maps the inner Map to HashMap for Map<String, Map<String, String>> and other nested value types.
