I'd rather say this is a personal preference. Some people always use final when declaring method parameters and others don't. The best place for that preference would be in the dialog that pops up when you select generate getter and setter! |
When you generate a setter for a field the parameter to the setter should be final e.g: ---------------- public class A { int m_field; //<-- generate getter for m_field } ------------------ result should be: -------------------- public class A { int m_field; //<-- generate getter for m_field public void setField(final int field) { m_field = field; } }
