Given the below code snippet - is the Customer Property Getting or Setting here?

I generally find it uneasy to grasp as to whether a Property is Getting data ready for returning or Setting the data...

order.Customer = _customerDao.GetCustomerByOrder(order.OrderId);

Thanks

Accepted answer
The Customer property is being set here as it's being assigned a value.

If the property returns a Customer object, then the following would be an example of getting:

Customer cust = order.Customer;

That's right, Steven.

Thanks Vulpes

So therefore cust is the local variable which is storing the result of the property?
