Private Access

Say if we ve certain private methods along with private data members and public methods.
other than friend function is thr any other way we access these members(they being private only) directly. its one of the requirements in a project of mine.
The real prob comes when accessing function.
say we've classes ported to us in .obj format. then going for DMA using pointers is a risky n unreliable job.

  1. class x
  2. {
  3. private:
  4. void meth1()
  5. {
  6. cout<<"Meth1";
  7. }
  8. void meth2()
  9. {
  10. cout<<"meth 2";
  11. }
  12. };
  13. class xduplicate
  14. {
  15. public:
  16. void virtual meth1();
  17. void virtual meth2();
  18. };
  19. main()
  20. {
  21. x obj;
  22. xduplicate *obj1;
  23. obj1=(xduplicate *)&obj;
  24. obj1->meth1();
  25. }
we can access meth1 only if in class x it is virtual. i.e. the entry is in the virtual table.
But now i cant jst change the native code ported to us. i've to anyhow access the private methods without any change in native code.
wht we're plannin is x will be the producer class n xduplicate the consumer class.
x will be available as .obj along with .h file
so how can 1.

though one of the cheap n unprofesssional sol is

  1. #undef private
  2. #define private public

but this unwantedly unveals many non required methods to open arena

I read in books that nested class cannot access private members of nesting class and vice versa unless they are made friends. Somehow, my compiler is letting my nested class member functions access private members of nesting class. template <typename T> class Container { // NO friendship given to any other public: class ContainerIterator;

two questions: 1) Does this program demonstrate the basic difference between public and private access? It appears correct to say that instances of a class cannot directly call a private method, but a public method can be called by the instance to invoke the private method. 2) So is it true that only public methods of a class can invoke a private method of that same class?

Hi, I was wondering if there is any way to make two objects of the same class to be able to access each other's private data, like this: class A { public: void access( const A& a ) {cout<<"a.value="<<a.value<<endl; } private: int value;

Hi, finally giving php 5 a go, and going over the new approach to classes. Can someone clarify the public, private and protected to me? I quote the php manual: "The visibility of a property or method can be defined by prefixing the declaration with the keywords: public, protected or private. Public declared items can be accessed everywhere."

Hello all, Is there a way to make a class private to the namespace so that other classes in the namespace can see and use it but noone outside a namespace can see or use it? Feel free to send me to links to read, I just cannot seem to find anything about this, maybe it's not possible. Thanks in advance, jmy

Hi, I'm wondering if there is something in namespace like the 'private' keyword in class? I want to define some class or function that can only be used within that namespace. Thanks, Peng

Hi. Thomas Mlynarczyk wrote: Why do you want them to be private in the first place? I have yet to see code where this really makes sense... And if it does, then the external public API is what counts, if the code as a whole still delivers what it promises, and that can be tested, it should be fine.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
