Delphi Prism provides Inline Property Accessors, which is a feature that makes it possible to have a full expression in the read part of the property, instead of having to write a getter method to do this. Delphi Prism supports almost all expressions in the read property. The write section also supports complex expressions, but they're required to be either a function matching the property setter or a field or property that is writable.

type
  MyList = class
  private
    fInnerList: List<String> := new List<String>;
  public
    property ItemLength[i: Integer]: Integer read Length(fInnerList[i]);
    property Item[i: Integer]: String read fInnerList[i] write fInnerList[i];
  end;
