Description

For generating getters, I'd like to have:

Image image() {
    return image;
}

instead of:

public Image getImage() {
    return image;
}

This would require:

  • a setting to choose the visibility modifier, if any
  • a setting to choose the method name (this could simply be a boolean setting, as I guess there are only 2 reasonable naming conventions as of today)

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points, so start by locating the getter-generation implementation and the existing settings definitions in vscode-java. Done means users can configure the visibility modifier and getter naming style, with generated methods matching the selected options in both illustrated cases.
