Class variables: public access read-only, but private access read/write

Question

Whoopee, not working on that socket library for the moment. I\'m trying to educate myself a little more in C++.

With classes, is there a way to make a variable read-

Answer 1

You may want to mimic C# properties for access (depending what you're going for, intended environment, etc.).

class Foo
{
  private:
    int bar;

  public:
    __declspec( property( get = Getter ) ) int Bar;

    void Getter() const
    {
      return bar;
    }
}
