Setters and Getters

Similar to other programming languages like C# there is possibility to create setters and getters in ActionScript. Here is an example:

//method accesed privately
private var _title:String = "Title";


//getter
public function get title():String
{
    return m_title;
}


//setter
public function set title(aTitle:String):void
{

    _title = aTitle;

    /*
     * here can be other code that you need to be executed 
     * when somebody sets your variable
     * example:
     * this.dispatchEvent(new Event('ModelTitleChangeEvent'));
     */
}

Use it or not? It depends on You and Your project. If project is advanced it is useful solution. And in my opinion code is easy to understand.
