/**
 * Marker annotation that can be used to define a non-static,
 * no-argument value-returning (non-void) method to be used as a "getter"
 * for a logical property.
 * It can be used as an alternative to more general
 * {@link JsonProperty} annotation (which is the recommended choice in
 * general case).
 *
 * Getter means that when serializing Object instance of class that has
 * this method (possibly inherited from a super class), a call is made
 * through the method, and return value will be serialized as value of
 * the property.
