  2. Mutator method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mutator_method

    Often a setter is accompanied by a getter, which returns the value of the private member variable. They are also known collectively as accessors . The mutator method is most often used in object-oriented programming , in keeping with the principle of encapsulation .

  3. JavaBeans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaBeans

    A property is a subset of a Bean's state. The values assigned to the properties determine the behaviour and appearance of that component. They are set through a setter method and can be obtained by a getter method. Customization A customizer can provide a step-by-step guide that the process must follow to use the component in a specific context ...

  4. Plain old Java object - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plain_Old_Java_Object

    A JavaBean is a POJO that is serializable, has a no-argument constructor, and allows access to properties using getter and setter methods that follow a simple naming convention. Because of this convention, simple declarative references can be made to the properties of arbitrary JavaBeans.

  5. Property (programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Property_(programming)

    A property, in some object-oriented programming languages, is a special sort of class member, intermediate in functionality between a field (or data member) and a method.The syntax for reading and writing of properties is like for fields, but property reads and writes are (usually) translated to 'getter' and 'setter' method calls.

  6. Field encapsulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_encapsulation

    In computer programming, field encapsulation involves providing methods that can be used to read from or write to the field rather than accessing the field directly. . Sometimes these accessor methods are called getX and setX (where X is the field's name), which are also known as mutato

  7. Class (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Class_(computer_programming)

    Not all languages support multiple inheritance. For example, Java allows a class to implement multiple interfaces, but only inherit from one class. [22] If multiple inheritance is allowed, the hierarchy is a directed acyclic graph (or DAG for short), otherwise it is a tree. The hierarchy has classes as nodes and inheritance relationships as links.

  8. Uniform access principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_access_principle

    The C# language supports class properties, which provide a means to define get and set operations (getters and setters) for a member variable. The syntax to access or modify the property is the same as accessing any other class member variable, but the actual implementation for doing so can be defined as either a simple read/write access or as ...

  9. Lazy initialization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazy_initialization

    This is typically accomplished by augmenting an accessor method (or property getter) to check whether a private member, acting as a cache, has already been initialized. If it has, it is returned straight away. If not, a new instance is created, placed into the member variable, and returned to the caller just-in-time for its first use.
