access a private member

[Lee Xu]

I know that the object can access the private member of another object of the same class, but forget the example. Can someone give a concrete example on this? Thanks.

Try reading the following link, the private section

Here's a simple example.

class A {
  private String s;
  private A(String s) {this.s = s;}
  public static void main (String[] args) {
    A a1 = new A("A1");
    A a2 = new A("A2");
    A a3 = new A("A3");
    // Access private members of objects a1, a2, a3.
    System.out.print(a1.s+","+a2.s+","+a3.s);
  }
}
