I realize many IDEs do this, but I felt like writing a few lines of script to spit this out instead. This will grab every line marked “private”, whether method or member variable and generates a default getter/setter.
Note: it doesn’t insert the code for you or even capture to a file. Maybe next I’ll do a Javascript version.
private Date businessDate; private String eventTypeCode; private String sourceCode; // becomes the following public Date getBusinessDate(){ return businessDate; } public void setBusinessDate(Date businessDate){ this.businessDate = businessDate; } public String getEventTypeCode(){ return eventTypeCode; } public void setEventTypeCode(String eventTypeCode){ this.eventTypeCode = eventTypeCode; } public String getSourceCode(){ return sourceCode; } public void setSourceCode(String sourceCode){ this.sourceCode = sourceCode; }
Script source:
#!/bin/env sh # takes a single filename of a .java file and generates a default getter/setter stub for each private variable cat $1 | grep private | awk '{ varName=substr($3, 1, length($3) - 1); print " public " $2 " get" toupper(substr(varName,1,1)) substr(varName, 2) "(){ "; print " return " varName ";"; print " }" print " public void set" toupper(substr(varName,1,1)) substr(varName, 2) "(" $2 " " varName "){ "; print " this." varName " = " varName ";"; print " }" }'
