title: Swagger not scanning ApiModel and ApiModelProperty annotations in entity classes that are in a different jar file

  <p>The only difference between the two classes is that they are defined in separate JAR files. <code>SampleApiEntity</code> is packaged in the same JAR as the REST resource class. <code>SampleModelEntity</code> is packaged in a separate JAR with other entity classes. The <code>swagger.yaml</code> file that is generated contains both classes, but lacks information provided by the <code>ApiModel</code> and <code>ApiModelProperty</code> annotations for the <code>SampleModelEntity</code> class.</p>
  
  <p>Here is what I am seeing in the generated <code>swagger.yaml</code> file:</p>
  
  <pre><code>SampleApiEntity:
    type: "object"
    required:
    - "level"
    - "time"
    properties:
      level:
        type: "integer"
        format: "int32"
        description: "level"
      description:
        type: "string"
        description: "description"
      time:
        type: "string"
        format: "date-time"
        description: "time"
      sampleApiEntityId:
        type: "string"
        format: "uuid"
        example: "123e4567-e89b-12d3-a456-426655440000"
        description: "id"
        readOnly: true
    description: "This is a sample entity from the Api package."
  SampleModelEntity:
    type: "object"
    properties:
      level:
        type: "integer"
        format: "int32"
      description:
        type: "string"
      time:
        type: "string"
        format: "date-time"
      sampleModelEntityId:
        type: "string"
        format: "uuid"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Can someone help me understand why the <code>ApiModel</code> and <code>ApiModelProperty</code> annotations are not generating output in <code>swagger.yaml</code>?</p>
