title: Autogeneration of Get & Set methods?
body: <p>I think the creation of holder classes, classes with just attritutes, get methods and set methods can be autogenerated.   I understand that Eclipse is a defacto "standard" Java IDE these days.  Does Eclipse do this?  Do other IDEs?</p>
  
  <p>I'm guessing the only reasons for making dedicated data holding classes instead of using HashMaps is to have mixed datatypes in a more visible/safter way and for the occasion when you want to DO something to the data when inserting it or retrieving it.  Thoughts?</p>
