Properties mean a lot of things to different people, and C#'s can do stuff that you don't expect so I would guess won't make it into Java as they tend to prioritise reading code over writing it. Having said that if you look at https://www.oracle.com/javaone/on-demand/index.html?bcid=513... about 30 minutes in you might see Brian talking about something that may be close enough to what most people want from properties to satisfy them. |

Thing is, this is true whether your language offers syntactic sugar for them, or not. Properties already exist in Java, they just exist as a matter of convention and custom - but the expectations on how they behave are just as strong, and a misbehaving getter, say, is just as surprising and damaging.
