Hi Johannes, There's no way to ignore the value during unmarshalling. For version 2 I've planned a <split> component of the binding that allows separate <input> and <output> branches, which would make this type of situation easier to handle.
You can make the added get/set methods you need for this private so they don't show up in the visible API, but I agree it's still ugly that you need to add them to your business objects. - Dennis Dennis M.
