@Target(value=METHOD)
public @interface IsInvariant

Specifies that the return value of the given method (usually a getter method) should be checked whenever the object is validated.
Important 1: This is only supported for non-void, non-parameterized methods.
Important 2: To retrieve the return value of the method OVal has to invoke the method during validation. Therefore you need to ensure that calling the method does not change the object state.
