As you correctly point out, setters and getters have been replaced by
the builder pattern. This is a recent change, so not much documentation
exists at this point, but we intend to remedy that. In the meantime you
can refer to the javadoc:

http://www.rabbitmq.com/releases/rabbitmq-java-client/current-javadoc/com/rabbitmq/client/AMQP.BasicProperties.Builder.html

And most general information about the builder pattern should be
applicable, e.g. this article by Joshua Bloch:

Another source of information is the use of the builder pattern
throughout the examples and tests in the rabbit java client library, e.g.

com.rabbitmq.examples.PerQueueTTLPublisher
