A common impediment to reusing JSON schemas is the difficulty in scoping qualified type names across different schemas. To assist partially with this problem, we introduce a custom annotation
x-sgen-typename
which allows to fully qualify the name of a schema type.When a schema type is indicated to be fully qualified, it is automatically considered external, and its definition is omitted from the generated code. The tests demonstrate an example of what a schema reuse infrastructure leveraging this custom annotation might look like.
