Description

As of version 5.4.0, Golang generated code appears to not compile correctly when using the --generate-alias-as-model option. Specifically, when referencing a schema within an array, the generated code now no longer uses pointer variables, which causes a compile error in the Unset() method.

Suppose the following schema snippet:

components:
  schemas:
    webhook:
      type: object
      properties:
        somefield:
          type: string
    webhook.list:
      description: List of webhooks.
      type: array
      items:
        $ref: '#/components/schemas/webhook'

This generates the following Go code (relevant parts shown):

// WebhookList List of webhooks.
type WebhookList struct {
	Items []Webhook
}

type NullableWebhookList struct {
	value WebhookList
	isSet bool
}

func (v *NullableWebhookList) Unset() {
	v.value = nil // This line causes a compilation error as assigning nil to a struct
	v.isSet = false
}

Previously the value variable was a pointer i.e. value *WebhookList as opposed to value WebhookList), so the nil assignment in Unset() worked. However this behaviour has changed in 5.4.0.

openapi-generator version

5.4.0
Appears to be a regression, this was working fine in 5.3.0
