Two scenarios need to be differentiated:
- HTTP requests may have an empty body, e.g. HTTP GET requests.
- HTTP requests may also have a body with the 'null' value.
We need to be able to differentiate these two cases when serializing the body. In particular, for HTTP GET request which have an empty body, the input object was set to null, and it was serialized as the 'null' value instead of the empty string.
This leads to incorrect message digest being calculated.
PR checklist
-
Read the contribution guidelines. -
If contributing template-only or documentation-only changes which will change sample output, build the project beforehand. -
Run the shell script ./bin/generate-samples.sh
to update all Petstore samples related to your fix. 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/config/java*
. For Windows users, please run the script in Git BASH. -
File the PR against the correct branch: master
-
Copy the technical committee to review the pull request if your PR is targeting a particular programming language.
