Short hand for method and field access modifiers in a Java class?

Is there a short hand for defining the access modifiers of a classes fields and methods? More in a C++ style, I've searched but keep coming up with sites explaining what the purpose of each modifier is rather than a short hand.

public class myNum {
    public int getNum() { return 0; }
    public void setNum(int n) { int num = n; }
    private int num;
    private String value;
}

Could become

public class myNum {
    public:
        int getNum() { return 0; }
        void setNum(int n) { int num = n; }
    private:
        int num;
        String value;
}

Although there is no short for defining methods, Eclipse can automatically generate getter and setter methods for you.

For methods nope. For variables you could try

public int n1,n2,n3..n;

private int n1,n2,n3..n;

But as you can see it can become messy quickly. And even then, it doesn't allow for different types under one access modifier.

But really nope.
