Why subclass in another package cannot access a protected method?

Question

I have two classes in two different packages:

package package1;

public class Class1 {
    public void tryMePublic() {
    }

    protected void tryMeProtect         


        

Answer 1

It can be acheived by two ways

1. Either by making an object of Child class and then accessing the protected method of Parent class.

PACKAGE 1

public class Class1 {
    protected void m1() {
        System.out.println("m1 called");
    }
}

PACKAGE2

public class Class2 extends Class1 {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Class2 class2 = new Class2();
        class2.m1();
    }
}

2. Or by directly calling the method from the Child class

eg tryMeProtected();
