The point of getters and setters, regardless of language, is to hide the underlying variable. This allows you to add verification logic when attempting to set a value – for example, if you had a field for a birth date, you might only want to allow setting that field to some time in the past. … Read more
try : php app/console doctrine:generate:entities EvrHomeBundle:Article If you are using symfony 3.0 or higher then substitue app with bin: php bin/console doctrine:generate:entities EvrHomeBundle:Article If you are using symfony 4+ then : php bin/console make:entity –regenerate
Not generally; a few options though; inherit from ContextBoundObject – which does allow this, but at a performance cost write an explicit property (i.e. with a backing field), and add a utility method call manually look at compile-time weavers, such as PostSharp – generally by spotting an attribute or similar look at runtime code generators, … Read more
I did done some micro benchmarking with lots of JVM warm up and found the two approaches take the exact same amount of execution time. This happens because the JIT compiler is in-lining the getter method with a direct access to the field thus making them identical bytecode.
This works for me: public class MyBaseClass { private var _name: String = “Hi” public internal(set) var name: String { get { return self._name } set { self._name = newValue } } } public class MyDerivedClass:MyBaseClass { override public var name: String { get { return “Derived – \(super.name)” } set { super._name = newValue … Read more
I’m using IntelliJ IDEA 14.1.0 and you can customise this behaviour. Just use the “Generate…” option, or use Alt+Insert shortcut, and select “Getter and Setter”. In the “Select Fields” window that gets opened, you have the “Getter Template” option at the top. Use the “…” button next to the dropdown, to edit the template. Select … Read more
You are correct: there is no need to include the (noise of) “boilerplate” signatures of standard setters and getters in a class model. Unfortunately, UML does not define a standard notation for implying getters and setters for private attributes. So, you’d have to use your own convention. For instance, you could include a general explanation … Read more
The correct answer is getxIndex() setxIndex(int value) if you want them to be used as properties according to section 8.8: Capitalization of inferred names of the JavaBeans API specification (e.g. access them via ${object.xIndex} in a JSP.
