Annotation Interface SerCustomWrite

@Target(METHOD)
@Retention(RUNTIME)
public @interface SerCustomWrite

This annotation is used to customize the serialization process of an object. It is executed when an object is about to be serialized. The implementation may:

• update the object state, including SerId fields
• call SerializerHelper.saveStandard() (mandatory)
• optionally, update the object before returning

Required prototype:

 private void save(SerializerHelper writer) [throws IOException]
 

Note that the visibility MUST be private to make sure that sub-classes do not accidentally override a custom writer method of a super-class.
