For API Requesters - we need support for Recursive References in Swagger/schema

We're generating swagger with RSA v9.7 that contains recursive references. Today, the zconbt cannot consume this swagger.

We need z/OS Connect to support these references and represent them, in some fashion, in Cobol data structures.

    IBM z/OS Connect EE is a continuous delivery offering, and aims to satisfy the needs of a rapidly evolving market segment. Product strategy evolves and requirements are continuously evaluated against that strategy. This RFE has recently been reappraised against the wider product strategy and does not fall into IBMs delivery plans for the next 12 months. Whilst this RFE might be valid and we might look to deliver longer term, this RFE is being rejected at this time.
