Eigenpoll : D wish list : Property shortcut

This would work as Ruby´s attr_writer and attr_reader and the easiest way to explain this is with an example:

This would do the same thing...

class MyClass
{
get set
{
int myInt;
}
}

like this

class MyClass
{
private int myInt_;

int myInt()
{
return myInt_;
}

int myInt(int value)
{
return myInt_ = value;
}
}

If you do like this

class MyClass
{
public get set
{
int myInt;
}
}

it would change the protection of the methods to public, the attribute would always be private.

of course you could do like this also

class MyClass
{
get
{
int myInt;
}
}

to only have a read property
