 * Annotation used for indicating view(s) that the property

 * An example annotation would be:
 *
 *  \@JsonView(BasicView.class)

 * which would specify that property annotated would be included
 * when processing (serializing, deserializing) View identified
 * by BasicView.class (or its sub-class).
 * If multiple View class identifiers are included, property will
