In C# / .NET you can do something like this:

someThing.text = "blah";
String blah = someThing.text;

However, the above code does not actually interact with the someThing’s text String directly, it uses a get and set property. Similarly, read-only properties can be used.

Is there a way to do something similar in native C++? (not C++ .NET)

    In .NET properties are syntactic sugar for the real get and set functions which are emitted behind the scenes (in fact they are more than syntactic sugar because properties are emitted in the resulting IL and could be used with Reflection). So in C++ you would need to explicitly write those functions as there’s no such notion as property.
