What are the advantages and disadvantages of the Properties Pattern?

Question

Steve Yegge describes the Properties Pattern in a blog post of his.

Answer 1

For someone using Java, as I read the article, I'd say you can't use the Properties Pattern on any projects, because quote:

Java offers essentially zero support for the Properties Pattern.

Same would be true for C# for the same reasons. I felt a little comforted when I came to that statement, because I sure wasn't finding any way to fit them together.

So I'm not sure I understand your question. But thanks for the link - upvote the question for that alone. Now I understand some things I halfway intuited a little better.
