java中getter的意义,getter / setter在Java中有什么用处？

I have seen member variables given a private modifier and then using getter/setter methods just to set and get the values of the variable (in the name of standardization).

Why not then make the variable public itself (Other than cases like spring framework which depends on getter/setters for IOC etc). It serves the purpose.

In C# I have seen getter/setter with Capitalization of the member variable. Why not make the variable public itself?

In order to get a stable API from the first shot. The Java gurus thought that if later on, you might want to have some extra logic when setting/getting an instance member, you don't want to break existing API by replacing public fields with public methods. This is the main reason in Java.

In the case of C#, public properties are used instead of public fields because of binary interface compatibility. Someone asked a similar question right here, on SO.

So, it's all about encapsulating some logic while still preserving interface for... future proofing.
