Question

Assume we have these two classes. Note that they are in separate packages. If the code works, tell me what it prints. Otherwise, tell me (in your own words) why it doesn’t work.

● In one package:

public class MyClass {

int x = 5;

}

● In another package:

public class Main {

public static void main(String args) {

MyClass obj = new MyClass();

System.out.println(obj.x);

}

}

Answer 1

It doesn't work.
access specifier for x in MyClass is protected.
so, we can't access x from a class of different package.
so, obj.x will give a compilation error in Main, since Main and MyClass are not in same package.
