This addresses the issue that inherited lists (or custom implementations of
IEnumerable<T>
) cannot be used and will lead to runtime exceptions (e.g. #380).Implementation Detail:
Namespace?.StartsWith("System")
) and custom / inherited enumerable implementationsListObjectTypeVisitor
to produce a reference if a custom list is used (as an alternative we could implement anotherVisitor
)IsReferencedOpenApiArray
checks where necessaryI added additional unit / integration tests to cover this use case.
Let me know what you think and if you favor changes / a different implementation. If accepted this approach could be applied for dictionaries also (#313), see proof of concept branch Dresel:v2-dictionary-as-reference-types.
