Re: [platform-swt-dev] SWT Event class design

Ah, now I see. I actually though you were referring to brainless getters and setters since this seems to be quite common in the Java world.

I'm not referring to those brainless getters and setters that do nothing but expose the private member variables.
What I would like to know is why isn't there any consistency check for e.g. negative heights and wights or a diposed widget or invalid thread access, etc.

Yes, but that would be the case if you had setters as well. If you only have getters then I see your point.

The fact that they are public fields means that anyone can modify them and change the nature of the event. Seems like an odd design to me, but maybe there is a reason for it.

What would be the point to have methods if they just forward to the instance variables?

Hi,

I would like to know what is the reason why Event class is designed with public fields instead of private with getters and setters methods.

Thanks and Best Regards,
