Thank you for contributing to swagger-core!

Description

Adds a Maven BOM module to centralize and align versions of Swagger Core artifacts.
Helps avoid version drift and resolve dependency conflicts in multi-module and complex projects.
Also documents BOM usage with an import snippet and example dependencies.

Fixes: #4966

---

Changes

• 🆕 New BOM module with managed Swagger artifacts: modules/swagger-bom/pom.xml
• 🔗 Wire BOM into the multi-module build: pom.xml:404
• 📘 Add “Maven BOM” section with usage example: README.md:150

---

Usage

Import the BOM in your project’s dependencyManagement section and omit versions on Swagger dependencies:

<dependencyManagement>
  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>io.swagger.core.v3</groupId>
      <artifactId>swagger-bom</artifactId>
      <version>${swagger-core.version}</version>
      <type>pom</type>
      <scope>import</scope>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>

See README.md:150 for the complete snippet and examples.

Compatibility

✅ Non-breaking — no code or API changes.
🔧 Pure build/dependency-management improvement.

---

Notes

The BOM currently manages the javax-based artifacts:

swagger-annotations, swagger-models, swagger-core,
swagger-integration, swagger-jaxrs2,
swagger-jaxrs2-servlet-initializer, swagger-jaxrs2-servlet-initializer-v2,
swagger-java17-support

Follow-up: if useful, a parallel Jakarta BOM (e.g., swagger-bom-jakarta) can be added.
