Can someone suggest packages to check for examples of the use of getproperty, setproperty!, etc.? I currently have functions named getθ, setθ!, … in the MixedModels package. The θ vector is a property of the model but not a field in the LinearMixedModel struct. It needs to be assembled from other…

I don’t think there are any subtleties. Maybe only that you probably also want to implement propertynames (for auto-completion) and the soon to come hasproperty .

Heavily WIP and subject to change, and not claiming to be “correct”, but this code forwards anything it cannot find in the object to a “parent”.
