If this would be an enterprise project, where most of the code is glue code and had to work with objects in a generic way, I would agree with them. But as JOSM is not, I like to keep the classes as simple as possible, which includes, that I don't add standard getter/setter but make the variable public. Also, there are no or very few so-called ''singleton-factories'' that become popular in the past years in JOSM. I use to reference singleton objects as global statics. This is unusual but equivalent to having stuff like Dependency Injection or Factory Methods (except you want to make complex things like auto-distributing stuff as seen in some enterprise programms).'' |
