No, it isn't.  It's a fluent API.  A builder might use fluent setters,
but they have uses elsewhere (if you do need mutability).

Personally, I think this might be a good addition - the file you
probably want to look at is at
https://github.com/apache/netbeans/blob/master/java/java.editor/src/org/netbeans/modules/java/editor/codegen/GetterSetterGenerator.java

I'd also like to see an option to leave out the set and get prefixes.
Best decision in records was not to bake that convention into the
language!

Best wishes,

Neil

RE: Generate setters that return this

2022-09-06 Thread Greenberg, Gary
Under 'Refactor' menu you can find options to 
a) Replace constructor with Builder;
b) Replace constructor with Factory
But I don't think you can generate builders directly.

Yes, I suppose Builder is the more correct term. The question is the 
same: Is there a way in NetBeans to generate those?

I think you are confusing setters with builders.
Setters do not return anything, but builders do return this.
Lookup design patterns.
