Research direction

Start by reproducing the example through JsonSchemaGenerator.generateSchema(A.class) and ObjectSchema.rejectAdditionalProperties() with the shown A and B classes. Inspect the generated schema for both classes; done means additionalProperties is false for every generated class, including nested B.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Provide JSON schema generation where "additionalProperties" : false will be applied for all classes which I have.

Suppose I have following classes:


class A{
    private String s;
    private B b;

    public String getS() {
        return s;
    }

    public B getB() {
        return b;
    }
}

class B{
    private BigDecimal bd;

    public BigDecimal getBd() {
        return bd;
    }
}

Generating schema as following like below code the schema property "additionalProperties" : false was applying only for the class A.

ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
JsonSchemaGenerator schemaGen = new JsonSchemaGenerator(mapper);
ObjectSchema schema = schemaGen.generateSchema(A.class).asObjectSchema();
schema.rejectAdditionalProperties();
mapper.writerWithDefaultPrettyPrinter().writeValueAsString(schema);
