Plain old Java object – link to Getter

It is not possible to add the new link because it would replace an existing, longer link.

A [[JavaBean]] is a POJO that is [[Serialization#Java|serializable]], has a no-argument [[Constructor (computer science)|constructor]], and allows access to properties using [[~~Mutator method|~~getter and setter methods]] that follow a simple naming convention. Because of this convention, simple declarative references can be made to the properties of arbitrary JavaBeans. Code using such a declarative reference does not have to know anything about the type of the bean, and the bean can be used with many frameworks without these frameworks having to know the exact type of the bean.

The JavaBeans specification, if fully implemented, slightly breaks the POJO model as the class must implement the [[Serialization#Java|Serializable]] interface to be a true JavaBean. Many POJO classes still called JavaBeans do not meet this requirement. Since [[Serialization|Serializable]] is a marker (method-less) interface, this is not much of a burden.
