Hiding setter methods of a bean

["Koney, Satish" <Sa...@syntelinc.com>]

Hello,

I am writing a web service in which I am returning a User object to the
client. On the server side, this User object looks just like an ordinary
JavaBean.
In the server side I want to have setter methods for all the properties in
User.

But when I return the User object to the client, that object should not have
setter methods.
Is there anyway I can achieve this?

Thanks,
SSSS.

I think a custom Serializer/Deserializer will handle this.  Then you can 
write out the schema with only those attributes you'd like, and then 
only write out / read in the properties you're interested in exposing 
when de/serializing instances.

Brian.
