access modifiers applied to property

[Roy]

If I define a property as
int age
{
get;
set;
}

Is there a way to add different access modifiers to the accessors when
implement?

[Greg Young]

Yes ... sort of ...

You could use an explicit interface implementation but the items will still
be publicly visible if casted to the interface.

Cheers,

If you've put that in the interface, they're public and *have* to be
public.

If you just mean the normal declaration of a property, you can indeed
specify them differently - but only in 2.0.

For example:

public int Age
{
get { return age; }
private set { age = value; }
}
