Intellij Code Completion for all setter/getter methods of local variable object

Question

I did try searching for this, but honestly the terms to actually search are escaping me. A small code snippet followed by the question.

Public class Person {     String firstName;    String lastName;     public void setFirstName(String firstName) {       this.firstName = firstName;    }     public String getFirstName() {       return firstName;    }    ... } 

In another object that uses this person object I would like to be able to expand all the setters methods in Intellij.

public class PersonAssembler {      public static Person assemblePerson(SomeOtherObject someOtherObject) {      Person person = new Person;      //intellj would provide this below.     person.setFirstName();     person.setLastName();     //end of what intellj provides.      return person; } 

Is this even possible? I have looked through the keyboard short cuts, etc. I have been using intellij for a while, so just wondered if anyone had some insight on this.

I was hoping for column edit mode, then code completion and perhaps a shift+down arrow to select multiple completions, but no luck. Which is not surprising. I would hate to have to write that in the GUI.

Edit: I added some clarification and honestly forgot about this question. The answers have nothing to do with the actual question if read carefully. I am not speaking of the Generate context menu.

Answer 1

In your project, right-click anywhere on the typing screen, and click 'Generate...' and then 'Getter and Setter'. Then, hold down CTRL and click on the fields you wish to create getters and setters for, then click on 'OK'.

Answer 2

This is an old question, but maybe it helps someone.

Also, it's not a "single-click" action, but...

Steps to follow:

• Go to Class file
• Open Structure view (left panel)
• Select all setters (sort alphabetically if needed) and copy
• Go back to your destination class/method
• Paste copied
• Edit (in column mode) to include person. at the beginning of each class and () at the end.
