Description ieising 2006-05-22 13:47:53 UTC
Hi,

I would really like to see a bulb show up when I generate a field, that suggests
to generate the getter and setter for the field.
In addition, I think it could be usefull to have an option to generate the
object or the primitive setter for a primitive or object type.

For example:

    private Long myLong;

would result in a bulb suggesting to generate:

    public Long getMyLong() {return myLong;}
    public void setMyLong(Long value) {myLong = value;)

as well as to generate the setter:

    public void setMyLong(long value) {myLong = new Long(value);}

with the field "long myLong" it would be the other way around.

I agree that this would be useful, but I do not think this is a defect. Thanks
for the suggestion.
