Object Oriented Programming: Unit II: Inheritance, Packages and Interfaces
What is Protected Member?
Object Oriented Programming
The protected mode allows accessing the members to all the classes and subclasses in the same package as well as to the subclasses in other package. But the non subclasses in other package can not access the protected members.
What is Protected Member?
• Protected
mode is another access specifier which is used in inheritance.
• The
protected mode allows accessing the members to all the classes and subclasses
in the same package as well as to the subclasses in other package. But the non
subclasses in other package can not access the protected members.
• For
example, if some variable is declared as protected, then the class itself can
access it, its subclass can access it, and any class in the same package can
also access it.
• Similarly
if the variable is declared as private then that variable is accessible by that
class only and its subclass or package can not access it.
