[Json-rpc-java] Serialized object properties - Annotations

[Tony Murphy]

I've just started using JSON-RPC-Java and I think it's great.

I did have one question - is there a way to define what object properties get serialized? I think it would be useful.

For example:

I return a List of Orders to a customer, some of the properties in the Order object may not be for the customer eyes (e.g. customerServiceNotes)

public class Order {
    private String orderNumber;
    private String description;
    private String customerServiceNotes;
    ...

    public String getOrderNumber() {
       return order;
    }
  
    public String getDescription() {
       return description;
    }

        /**
         * Don't want the user seeing these!
         */
         @JSON_NO_SERIALIZE
         public String getCustomerServiceNotes() {
         }
}

Maybe an annotation could be used to tell JSON-RPC-Java not to serialize a property?

I had a look at http://flexjson.sourceforge.net/ and it helps explain the issue
