Properties

Yes, we do have setX and getX methods generated, but I want to start discussion whether it is a good idea to generate "proper" D properties that we can use too. So instead of window.setTitle(myWindowTitle); we can write window.title = myWindowTitle; instead, or string mainWinTitle = window.title; instead of using getTitle(). Yes, it will add extra complexity to gidgen but I think it is worth it. Also if user uses the with statement that window. disappears too, leaving just title = "hello world"; for an example.

Thanks for the suggestion. I had been thinking about this for a while, since most other GObject bindings have property support. Happy to say that this has been added with giD 0.9.6. Only thing missing now are GObject virtual class methods. I plan on adding that for the next release.

Amazing! I am closing this thread as there is no point in discussing this further...
