My motivation is simple. I have different output targets for my data, some
require formatted output, and others the raw numerical data. Some even
require both at the same time.
In theory I could use your idea of specialized getters and setters with
built in formatting functionality. But I have hundreds of Stroubles, and it
is very impractical to write fancy getters for all of them individually. I
prefer to generate dumb getters automatically in Eclipse and put the logic
in the binding file.
I'm not sure that what you want to do will work since the name of a real
getter should normally refer to the name of the field it is "gets". But I'm
not sure about this, it may work.
My issue remains. Ideas, anyone?
PS When I cleaned my code to present the example above I forgot to change
some of the instances of "test" to "xxx".
