Re: Accessors vs Properties

[Gergely Polonkai <gergely polonkai eu>]

Hello,

I don't know about others, but in my own code, my_obj_set_property() does
nothing else just calls the setter functions (and the same for getters). It
makes much more sense, and I saw it in a lot of Gtk and Gnome code, too.

Best,
Gergely
