digitalmars.D.learn - visibility deprecation with last dmd compiler
- jacob (24/24) May 03 2017 I have 2 files
- Adam D. Ruppe (5/6) May 03 2017 You don't, the whole point of private is that they aren't used
I have 2 files file abc.d: == module my.abc; class Abc { private int x; this() { this.x = 1; } } == and xyz.d: == module my.xyz; import my.abc; class Xyz: Abc { this() { super(); this.x = 2; } } == Compilation fails with "Deprecation: my.abc.Abc.x is not visible from module xyz" As I understand, the reason is https://dlang.org/changelog/2.071.0.html#dip22 But how can I use private fields from descedant class?
