C++ Access Specifiers
C++ Access Specifiers
In C++, there are three access specifiers:
public- members are accessible from outside the classprivate- members cannot be accessed (or viewed) from outside the classprotected- members cannot be accessed from outside the class, however, they can be accessed in inherited classes.
Example
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;class MyClass {
public: // Public access specifier
int x; // Public attribute
private: // Private access specifier
int y; // Private attribute
};int main() {
MyClass myObj;
myObj.x = 21; // Allowed (x is public)
myObj.y = 40; // Not allowed (y is private)
return 0;
}
Output:
In function 'int main()':
Line 8: error: 'int MyClass::y' is private
Line 14: error: within this context
