Mastering Packages and Access Modifiers in Java: Example 4

Different Package different class (private method)

We are trying to access a private method Within different Package and different class

ClassA is not public in pack1; can be accessed from outside package

MethodOfClasB() has private access in ClassA. It should not be private, it should be public to run.

package pack1;

public class ClassA{

	public int x = 10;
	int y = 12;
	private int z = 14;

  public void MethodOfClassA()
 	{
 	 System.out.println("Method of ClassA");
	}
	
     public void MethodOfClassB()
 	{
 	 System.out.println("Method of ClassB private");
	}	

}

package pack2;
import pack1.ClassA;

class ClassB{

  public static void main(String args[])
  {
 	ClassA object = new ClassA();
 	System.out.println(object.x);
    object.MethodOfClassA();

  //  system.out.println(object.y); // not possible
  //  system.out.println(object.z); // not possible
  
  	
   //  object.MethodOfClassB(); // not possible
  }

}
