Thanks, @LakshmananVignesh . We will plan to add code examples illustrating different parsing scenarios, and we'll reference this issue on those updates.

@andylowry, can we discuss this briefly before you get started? I have a couple of concerns, and some things that maybe worth looking at as alternative solutions: visitor pattern, and...

@chris-brace , not sure whether it's helpful to point this out, but it seems what you want is an empty _array_, not an empty object. Is there a serialization option...

A hunch: [`SecurityRequirementImpl`](https://github.com/RepreZen/KaiZen-OpenApi-Parser/blob/master/kaizen-openapi-parser/src/main/java/com/reprezen/kaizen/oasparser/ovl3/SecurityRequirementImpl.java) seems to need a fix similar to the one we see in [`SecurityParameterImpl`](https://github.com/RepreZen/KaiZen-OpenApi-Parser/blob/master/kaizen-openapi-parser/src/main/java/com/reprezen/kaizen/oasparser/ovl3/SecurityParameterImpl.java). Security Requirement Object is a map of Security Scheme names to an array of...

@chris-brace , just to cover the bases, it would help to know: * Is it possible to create an empty SecurityRequirement object, and add this to the `security` array value?...

@chris-brace , I took some time this weekend to experiment with serialization, focusing on several cases of empty objects and empty arrays that are meaningful in Security Scheme and Security...

@dillonredding , that behavior definitely looks wrong, not consistent with what's described in our docs [here](https://github.com/RepreZen/KaiZen-OpenApi-Parser/blob/master/API-Overview.md#exposing-references). How are you parsing the model? From a string, a file, URI or URL?...

@dillonredding , many of the classes are generated by [JSON Overlay](https://github.com/RepreZen/JsonOverlay); and there aren't any docs available on that project yet. I don't really have intimate knowledge of this code,...
