Properties are descriptive attributes of an objects that can be queried and changed at runtime using the XPropertySet interface.

Naming

In non-scripting languages, such as Java or C/C++, property identifiers are simply strings. These identifiers always begin with an uppercase letter and use initial caps, for example, BackgroundColor. Avoid abbreviations.

Usage

Properties are used for non-structural attributes of an object. For structural attributes (composition) use get and set methods in an interface instead.
