Question

Is it possible to access private members of a class in c++.

provided you don\'t have a friend function and You don\'t have access to the class def

Answer 1

I think there was some old school trick like this:

#define private public
#include "header.h"
#define private private

But you are strongly discouraged to do this (I've read quickly that the said something about this in the C++ standard) - if you want to read more about this google for "#define private public"
