C# Future Directions: Ruby
Remember that catchy RubyCLR motto?
Now C# (Anders Hejlsberg) is playing catch up talking about automatic properties:
public string Bar { get; set; }Above is meant to be translated by a compiler into private string foo;
public string Bar
{
get { return foo; }
set { foo = value; }
}
Now I'm not sure I like reusage of the abstract property notation, but still way to go guys.

digg it

I believe the idea is to minimize the impact on C# syntax, so reusing existing constructs.
It's not so clean though...
I love the idea too but don't like the abstract property notation either. I always thought it would complimentary to the "event" keyword to do this like so:
class Foo {
public property string Bar;
public readonly property string Foo;
...
}
The only case this doesn't handle is set only properties which are so uncommon that I wouldn't mind having to implement the property the old way.
