| Use <strong>Generate Getters and Setters</strong> from the <a href="ref-menu-source.htm">Source menu</a> or the context menu on a selected field or type, or a text selection in |

| The Generate Getters and Setters dialog shows getters and setters for all fields of the selected type. The methods are grouped by the type's fields. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| The names of the getter and setter methods are derived from the field name. If you use a prefix or suffix for fields (e.g. fValue, _value, val_m), you can specify the |
| suffixes and prefixes in the <a href="preferences/java/ref-preferences-code-style.htm">Code Style</a> preference page (Windows > Preferences > Java > Code Style). |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| When pressing <strong>OK</strong>, all selected getters and setters are created. |
