I’m extending a java class where I would like to override the getter/setter as properties is that really not possible?

class Sample<T> {
  @Nullable
  public T getValue() {...}
  protected void setValue(T value) {...}
  //...
}

That is the simplified base class I had in mind something like:

class Foo<T> : Sample<T>() {
  override val `value`: T
    get() {...}
    set(value) {...}
}

Well the different visibility modifier won’t make it easier ether…
