PR checklist
Commit all changed files.
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/configs/java*
.IMPORTANT: Do NOT purge/delete any folders/files (e.g. tests) when regenerating the samples as manually written tests may be removed.

Description
The template file
src/main/resources/Java/modelInnerEnum.mustache
was using thevalueOf()
method to create instances for enum fields. This does not work for every Object, becausevalueOf()
is not implemented in every possible Object.BigDecimal
for example does not provide thevalueOf(BigDecimal)
method. This behaviour results in invalid code through generation.To fix this, I decided to only use the
valueOf
method, for non numeric types. It seems the decision to use thevalueOf
method was, to fix a bug for Boolean values (see: PR-19815 ). So this fix should be non breaking.This PR closes issue-2694445144
