Note on Global Property declaration

There are two ways to provide selective generation properties or "global properties". First, these can be passed as Java System Properties. Second, these can be passed via the global property tooling option (--global-property in CLI and globalProperty in Maven and Gradle configurations). This differentiation is new in version 5.0 with the removal of the -D CLI option and the renaming of systemProperties. If you're upgrading to OpenAPI Generator 5.0+

While the examples seen in Customization use the Java System Property syntax, keep in mind that the following are equivalent:

java -Dmodels {jar} generate {opts}

and

java {jar} generate {opts} --global-property=models

Why the two differing ways to provide the same properties? We previously accepted a -D tooling option which resembled Java System Property declaration. In older versions of OpenAPI Generator, the option modified the SystemProperties collection directly and was truly a "system property". This option changed during the 4.x release in an effort to make OpenAPI Generator thread-safe and isolate its configuration via thread locals. We no longer mutate System Properties. In the 4.x release and earlier, specifying the tooling -D option with system properties intended for other tools like swagger-parser rather than passing them as true Java System Properties would lead to unexpected behavior for the user; if our tool set the system property after invoking certain code, it would seem to the user like Java System Properties weren't working!
