So your saying that just because Java does it this its bad and you should flame the person? Even if this practice JUST MAY be a better way to do it?

Maybe you don't need explicit get/set methods but the original post was right. When programming to a class you shouldn't need to know/care about how that class does it stuff.

By the way you shot back at him I'm guessing you leave all your variables as public globals so anyone get at them?

Also, why would "Java mentors" think multiple inheritance is evil? Care to explain?
