PHP class generator is a solution for that kind of job. It takes the name of class and list of member variables as parameters, then generate PHP class source code automatically.
For example, if you want
class testClass
{
var $test1;
var $test2;
function __construct()
{
}
function setTest1($test1)
{
$this->test1 = $test1;
}
function getTest1()
{
return $this->test1;
}
function setTest2($test2)
{
$this->test2 = $test2;
}
function getTest2()
{
return $this->test2;
}
}
?>
For example, if you want just type
$php genClass.php testClass test1 test2 > testClass.php
then it generates source code you want. Stop writing get/set function manually from now. Here is source code. I hope you enjoy it.

$this->test2 = $test2;
}
function getTest2()
{
return $this->test2;
}
}
