Description
A member described with an enum has no corresponding enum when generating code for cpp-restsdk (and it seems to be the same for any C++ generators), it is then hard to map possible values from server to our code, and to ensure not setting an invalid value.
openapi-generator version
5.0.1
OpenAPI declaration file content or url
https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator/blob/master/samples/yaml/pet.yml
Pet status is described with an enum:
status:
type: string
description: pet status in the store
enum:
- available
- pending
- sold
Generation Details
Nothing special, but as you can see I use your sample that has the same issue.
Steps to reproduce
Simply generate the code for your sample, you can see in Java there is an enum generated
(see https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator/blob/master/samples/client/petstore/java/resttemplate/src/main/java/org/openapitools/client/model/Pet.java):
public enum StatusEnum {
AVAILABLE("available"),
PENDING("pending"),
SOLD("sold");
private String value;
StatusEnum(String value) {
this.value = value;
}
[...]
}
[...]
private StatusEnum status;
But in C++ a direct string is used making it hard to manage cleanly such member (see https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator/blob/master/samples/client/petstore/cpp-restsdk/client/model/Pet.h):
utility::string_t m_Status
Related issues/PRs
Found issues for another generator but not for any C++ one.
Suggest a fix
Like in Java, instead of simply using a string, generate an enum and use it as type for such members.
