Annotation Type ClientToServer

@Documented
@Retention(value=RUNTIME)
@Target(value={TYPE,METHOD,FIELD})
public @interface ClientToServer

Annotation specifying that a field or class will be sent from the client (but not necessarily back from the server). This can be applied to interfaces, classes, methods or fields, though using field-level concrete classes breaks compatibility; you should stick to interfaces + methods, and avoid classes + fields. Applying this to the class makes every field in the model serializable on the client, and you will have to use enabled() = false to strictly disable any fields. This makes it easy to add client-only fields that can be used on the server, provided your interface is in a shared lib. If you need to hide client-only fields, manually call .setProperty(String, Object) on your models.
