Models with a discriminator emitted @JsonTypeInfo(As.PROPERTY) but also declared the discriminator property as a regular @JsonProperty field, so Jackson serialized the discriminator twice, producing a duplicate key in the response body.

Mirror the Spring generator by emitting:

  • @JsonIgnoreProperties(value = "<prop>", allowSetters = true) on the discriminator-carrying model
  • allowSetters = true preserves the field during deserialization.

The JsonIgnoreProperties import was already added unconditionally by AbstractJavaCodegen, so no Java change is required.

PR checklist

  • Read the contribution guidelines.
  • Run the following to build the project and update samples:
    ./mvnw clean package || exit
    ./bin/generate-samples.sh ./bin/configs/*.yaml || exit
    ./bin/utils/export_docs_generators.sh || exit
    
    (For Windows users, please run the script in WSL)
    Commit all changed files.
    This is important, as CI jobs will verify all generator outputs of your HEAD commit as it would merge with master.
    These must match the expectations made by your contribution.
    You may regenerate an individual generator by passing the relevant config(s) as an argument to the script, for example ./bin/generate-samples.sh bin/configs/java*.
    IMPORTANT: Do NOT purge/delete any folders/files (e.g. tests) when regenerating the samples as manually written tests may be removed.
  • If your PR is targeting a particular programming language, @mention the technical committee members, so they are more likely to review the pull request.

…icate key

Models with a discriminator emitted @JsonTypeInfo(As.PROPERTY) but also
declared the discriminator property as a regular @JsonProperty field, so
Jackson serialized the discriminator twice, producing a duplicate key in
the response body.

Mirror the Spring generator by emitting
@JsonIgnoreProperties(value = "<prop>", allowSetters = true) on the
discriminator-carrying model. allowSetters = true preserves the field
during deserialization. The JsonIgnoreProperties import was already added

Regenerated the affected jaxrs-spec samples.
…h legacyDiscriminatorBehavior=false

Add a dedicated fixture (discriminator-mapping-children.yaml) and test
asserting that when legacyDiscriminatorBehavior=false the discriminator is
propagated onto the allOf children reachable via the discriminator mapping,
so @JsonIgnoreProperties is emitted on the parent and every child, ensuring
the discriminator property is not serialized twice in either case.
