Description

Problem description

Given this config:

<plugin>
	<groupId>org.apache.cxf</groupId>
	<artifactId>cxf-codegen-plugin</artifactId>
	<version>${dependency.cxf.version}</version>
	<executions>
		<execution>
			<id>generate-sources</id>
			<phase>generate-sources</phase>
			<goals>
				<goal>wsdl2java</goal>
			</goals>
			<configuration>
				<defaultOptions>
					<markGenerated>true</markGenerated>
					<suppressGeneratedDate>true</suppressGeneratedDate>
				</defaultOptions>
			</configuration>
		</execution>
	</executions>
</plugin>

The resulting code will have a timestamp in the @Generated annotation:

@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
@XmlType(name = "MyServiceClass", propOrder = {
    "p1",
    "p2",
    "p3"
})
@Generated(value = "com.sun.tools.xjc.Driver", comments = "JAXB RI v2.3.5", date = "2024-06-18T09:12:10+02:00")
public class MyServiceClass { }

Expected behaviour

No timestamp was generated (for reproducible builds)
