The XmlListener provides a mechanism to have the lifecycle event methods on an external class.


   @XmlListeners({CustomerDebugListener.class, AnotherListener.class})
   public class Customer {
   }

   public class CustomerDebugListener {

      @XmlBeforeUnmarshal
      public void preUnmarshal(Unmarshaller, Object parent, Customer child);

      @XmlAfterUnmarshal
      public void postUnmarshal(Unmarshaller, Object parent, Customer child);

      @XmlBeforeMarshal
      public boolean preMarshal(Marshaller, Customer child);
       
      @XmlAfterMarshal
      public void postMarshal(Marshaller, Customer child);

   }
