[Kde-finance-apps] Problem Using getter and Setter Function

[Mukesh Gupta]

Hello Cristian,Thomas,

Thanks for reply.What i was trying to do is access/set all member varibales
using getter/setter functions.
I knew how to define the functions but did not know how to access them. I
was confused whether to use them as normal functions or these could be used
as variable after setting the property as thomas pointed out. Well, this is
clear now.
Thanks,
Regards,
Mukesh
