/**
* Annotation that can be used to define ordering (possibly partial) to use
* when serializing object properties. Properties included in annotation
* declaration will be serialized first (in defined order), followed by
* any properties not included in the definition.
* Annotation definition will override any implicit orderings (such as
* guarantee that Creator-properties are serialized before non-creator
* properties)
*
* Examples:
*
* // ensure that "id" and "name" are output before other properties
* @JsonPropertyOrder({ "id", "name" })
* // order any properties that don't have explicit setting using alphabetic order
* @JsonPropertyOrder(alphabetic=true)
*
*
* This annotation may or may not have effect on deserialization: for basic JSON
* handling there is no effect, but for other supported data types (or structural
* conventions) there may be.
*
* NOTE: annotation is allowed for properties, starting with 2.4, mostly to support
* alphabetic ordering of {@link java.util.Map} entries.
