Generating getters and setters

The Java editor allows you to generate accessors ("getters and setters") for the fields of a type inside a compilation unit.

1. In the editor, select the field for which you want to generate accessors (or a type in which you want to create these methods).

2. Select Generate Getter and Setter from the Source pop-up menu.

3. A dialog will open to let you select which methods you want to create.

4. Select the methods and press OK.
