Suppose I have three C++ classes FooA, FooB and FooC.
FooA has an member function named Hello
, I want to call this function in class FooB, but I don't want class FooC be able to call it. The best way I can figure out to realize this is to declare FooB as a friend class of FooA. But as long as I do this, all FooA's private and protected members will be exposed which is quite unacceptable to me.
So, I wanna know if there is any mechanism in C++(03 or 11) better than friend
class which can solve this dilemma.
And I assume it will be nice if the following syntax is possible:
class FooA
{
private friend class FooB:
void Hello();
void Hello2();
private:
void Hello3();
int m_iData;
};
class FooB
{
void fun()
{
FooA objA;
objA.Hello() // right
objA.Hello2() // right
objA.Hello3() // compile error
ojbA.m_iData = 0; // compile error
}
};
class FooC
{
void fun()
{
FooA objA;
objA.Hello() // compile error
objA.Hello2() // compile error
objA.Hello3() // compile error
ojbA.m_iData = 0; // compile error
}
};
