generates code with no error but when maven tries to compile it will receive an error:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.8.0:compile (default-compile) on project lighty-models-skeleton: Compilation failure
[ERROR] /home/miroslav/projects/java/pt-ldl/distribution/scripts/user/java/lighty-models-skeleton/target/generated-sources/mdsal-binding/org/opendaylight/yang/gen/v1/a/norev/foo_cont/foo_cont2/FooList2Builder.java:[157,60] incompatible types: java.lang.Object cannot be converted to java.lang.String

the problem is with following generated code:

        FooList2Impl(FooList2Builder base) {
            super(base.augmentation);
            if (base.key() != null) {
                this.key = base.key();
            } else {
                this.key = new FooList2Key(base.getKeyLeaf1(), base.getKeyLeaf2(), base.getKeyLeaf3());
            }
            this._keyLeaf1 = key.getKeyLeaf1();
            this._keyLeaf2 = key.getKeyLeaf2();
            this._keyLeaf3 = key.getKeyLeaf3();
        }

here we can see that it is trying to create instance of FooList2KEY with three keys from base. Where base is:

public class FooList2Builder implements Builder<FooList2> {    private      Object _keyLeaf1;
    private String _keyLeaf2;
    private String _keyLeaf3;
    private FooList2Key key;

as you can see the first field is Object _keyLeaf1 which is a problem because FooList2Key constructor is generated like this:

public FooList2Key(String _keyLeaf1, String _keyLeaf2, String _keyLeaf3) {
        this._keyLeaf1 = _keyLeaf1;
        this._keyLeaf2 = _keyLeaf2;
        this._keyLeaf3 = _keyLeaf3;
    }

String _keyLeaf1 !!!
