C# & C++ Question

Then nope.  There isn't.

[Mephisto]

ew @ redundancy!

[dxoigmn]

Then nope.  There isn't.

It's all just syntactic sugar anyways.

Protected classes are actually classes within classes and can be accessed by classes that derive from the class that it exists within;

In Java, aren't protected classes accessible by all the other classes in the *package*?

Say you have:

A.java:

Code Select Expand


public class A
{
  protected class B
  {

  }
}


C.java:

Code Select Expand


public class C extends A
{
  // I can access B here.
}

That is Java protected-class accessibility.

oops..i was thinking of data members

A.java:

Code Select Expand


public class A
{
  protected int B;
}


C.java:

Code Select Expand


public class C
{
  // create an instance of A, and access B
}


Because you haven't explicitly named what package their in, their a part of the default package.  From what i've learnt you should be able to access B from C.  That's what I was asking.

Now, given that, do the same rules apply to the classes?

ergh, i'll have to check that out at home tonight.
