Interesting idea - submit it to the wishlist!
Seriously, that's the way to get your voice heard.
Personally, most of my get/set methods tend to do more than just read /
write the underlying property but I can see how it might be a useful
shorthand for a lot of people. Perhaps extending cfproperty to allow
you to specify that a property really represent a "bean":
<cfproperty name="foo" bean="true" type="string">
would then be shorthand for:
<cffunction name="getFoo" returntype="string">
<cfreturn foo>
</cffunction>
<cffunction name="setFoo">
<cfargument name="newFoo" type="string" required="true">
<cfset foo = arguments.newFoo>
</cffunction>
But the unnamed (internal) scope issue would need tidying up first
before this could be implemented.
