25   * Workflow interface that allows for customized client-side message interception. Applications can register any number
26   * of existing or custom interceptors on a {@link org.springframework.ws.client.core.WebServiceTemplate}, to add common
27   * pre- and postprocessing behavior without needing to modify payload handling code.
28   * <p/>
29   * A <code>ClientInterceptor</code> gets called after payload creation (using {@link
30   * org.springframework.ws.client.core.WebServiceTemplate#marshalSendAndReceive(Object)} or similar methods, and after
31   * {@link org.springframework.ws.client.core.WebServiceMessageCallback callback} invocation, but before the message is
32   * sent over the {@link WebServiceConnection}. This mechanism can be used for a large field of preprocessing aspects,
33   * e.g. for authorization checks, or message header checks. Its main purpose is to allow for factoring out meta-data
34   * (i.e. {@link SoapHeader}) related code.
35   * <p/>
36   * Client interceptors are defined on a {@link org.springframework.ws.client.core.WebServiceTemplate}, using the {@link
37   * org.springframework.ws.client.core.WebServiceTemplate#setInterceptors(ClientInterceptor[]) interceptors} property.
