[Mono-list] C# General Question...

[Reggie Burnett]

The point of properties having get and set methods is to hide
potentially ugly details of getting and setting properties.  A good
example is SWF in the .Net framework itself.  Setting some properties on
a form cause the underlying HWND to be destroyed and recreated.

That being said, a deriving class can override the property if it needs
to provide another implementation of get/set or hide set altogether.
