Research direction
Investigate existing codegen modules for Java client (e.g., modules/swagger codegen/src/main/java/io/swagger/codegen/languages/JavaClientCodegen.java) and templates (src/main/resources/handlebars/JavaClient/). Look for any existing support for other HTTP clients (e.g., OkHttp) to understand the pattern. Check comments in the issue for any suggestions. Consider referencing the Apache Http Client library and its integration points. No PRs or detailed implementation guidance provided.
