The Quintessential Bean
This example bean has a single property called ``property''. If the property were not a boolean, it would not have an is\meta{X()} method. Also, if the property were read-only, it would not have a set\meta{X()} method. 

 import java.io.Serializable;
     
 public class BasicBean implements Serializable {
   boolean property;
   public BasicBean() {
   }
   public boolean getProperty() {
     return property;
   }
   public boolean isProperty() {
     return property;
   }
   public void setProperty(boolean newValue) {
     property = newValue;
   }
 }
