I think you misinterpreted, the TestVO is a java class. Coding it correctly should not affect the Flex versions of the class. When the bean is transfered to Flex it will contain publicly accessable properties representing the private members that have public getters, ie if you have getData there will be a property data on the transfered object. That is how Java Beans work. If this convention is not followed then if you start working with Enterprise level projects you run into problems.
