How to make a derived class access the private member data?

Question

I\'m stuck with a c++ problem. I have a base class that has a self referential object pointer inside the private visibility region of the class. I have a constructor in the base

Answer 1

try to give protected as the access specifier in base class and inherit the base class in private mode.....but for further using member functions of base class u may need few short inline functions as they will also be converted to private
