The public members of com.foo.bar.alpha and com.foo.bar.beta packages will be accessible by dependent modules. Private members are inaccessible even through a means such as reflection. Note that in Java versions 9 through 16, whether such 'illegal access' is de facto permitted depends on a command line setting. [13]
C++ uses the three modifiers called public, protected, and private. [3] C# has the modifiers public, protected,internal, private, protected internal, private protected, and file. [4] Java has public, package, protected, and private; package is the default, used if no other access modifier keyword is specified. The meaning of these modifiers may ...
Classes within a package can access classes and members declared with default (package-private) access as well as class members declared with the protected access modifier. Default (package-private) access is enforced when a class or member has not been declared as public, protected or private. By contrast, classes in other packages cannot ...
Some languages like Smalltalk and Ruby only allow access via object methods, but most others (e.g., C++, C#, Delphi or Java [12]) offer the programmer some control over what is hidden, typically via keywords like public and private. [8]
Java package is a group of similar classes and interfaces. Packages are declared with the package keyword. private The private keyword is used in the declaration of a method, field, or inner class; private members can only be accessed by other members of their own class. [17] protected
The platform was known as Java 2 Platform, Standard Edition or J2SE from version 1.2, until the name was changed to Java Platform, Standard Edition or Java SE in version 1.5. The "SE" is used to distinguish the base platform from the Enterprise Edition and Micro Edition platforms. The "2" was originally intended to emphasize the major changes ...
Friend: C++ supports a mechanism where a function explicitly declared as a friend function of the class may access the members designated as private or protected. [15] Path-based: Java supports restricting access to a member within a Java package, which is the logical path of the file. However, it is a common practice when extending a Java ...
[9] Java 9 introduced the VarHandle class, which allows use of relaxed atomics to access fields, giving somewhat faster reads on machines with weak memory models, at the cost of more difficult mechanics and loss of sequential consistency (field accesses no longer participate in the synchronization order, the global order of accesses to volatile ...
