Enum in array of array

[jmini]

Input from @jimschubert on Gitter:

I had fixed this once with Kotlin and I think C#

the fix for Kotlin and C# for items nested in arrays, though, wouldn't necessarily be accurate for Java because it has type erasure where the others don't. That is, the type may be correct but wouldn't be verifiable at compile time. I think the fix you've added for Java is a good fix.

Plus, C# for example treats Enum as a primitive (it compiles to an integral value) rather than an object like Java does. I seem to recall when looking at similar solutions that they didn't work in C#. I'll need to check to make sure refactoring haven't cause a regression in that behavior, now that I think about it.

Here we are really at my limitations, because for me the pattern in csharp/modelGeneric.mustache lines 15-27 looks really similar to what I have changed for java. But I really do not know...

@jmini My comment was toward API parameters, not model properties. I must have misread.

@jmini

Do you think a mustache helper would be out of the question here?

I believe we can wrap the template example you've provided here into something that could be invoked as {{#shared.model_inner_enum}}{{/shared.model_inner_enum}}. This would then just include the template from the current framework/library templates.

I really need to catch up on the JMustache lib. I thought not having helper in template is a big difference between handlebar and JMustache.

In swagger-codegen v3 I solved it with an helper that returns the most inner type or the type itself if it isn't a container see: swagger-api/swagger-codegen-generators#58

JMustache supports helpers and filters. The big difference is that Handlebars support control for statements other that the existence checks of Mustache.
