-== Getters and setters ==
-Here's an alternative set of guidelines our group came up with:
-* Always make fields have ''private'' access.
-* Only write getters and setters as needed.
-* External: access to fields using getters and setters.
-* Internal: access to fields directly, but only if it's the same object. Use getter and setters if same class, but different objects.
-* Getters should be read-only (i.e. Collections should be returned as unmodifiable Collections)

-Agreed, I prefer ''private'' access to instance variables, One's private bit is private, though it is protected, it is still private. Also, we have agreed to minimize access so private is the most minimum access for one's private bit. --[[User:Johannes Pagwiwoko|Jojo]] 02:48, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
