I agree. I was only referring to setter methods (though I may not have been
very clear about that). In the above example, you're using getters. A
getter's purpose is to return something. Conseqently, the purpose of the
line above seems very clear to me.
This is in contrast to an example posted by Sean in another thread:
person.setFirstName("Sean").setLastName("Corfield")
I find it more difficult to read. I would be very surprised if it were any
faster than two lines of code. So, I was wondering if there were any other
benefits or tricks that I'm missing.
