[Question] Change property's access

[johnwc]

Is there a way to change a property of an entity to read-only during scaffolding?
Change public bool Field { get; set;} to public bool Field { get; private set;}

There are a number of ways. The easiest is to update the Properties.hbs template:

public {{property-type}} {{property-name}} { get; private set; }

But that would make every property read-only.

What condition do you wish to apply?

To be honest, I do not remember what I was trying to accomplish back then. I think I was trying to set certain properties of a table/entity to be read-only(private setter), as the property was going to be obsoleted for updating soon, but still needed to read it. This way it could be populated from database, but code could not update it.
