Slice class data members -> private in Java/C++?

Hello,

I'm wondering why data members in a Slice class do not become private members of the generated Java/C++ class. Would it not be useful to at least have that option?

Cheers

    If they are private, how would you access them?

    However, we will probably add a metadata directive, so that they can be made protected. This way, only derived classes can access them.
  • Right, I overlooked that you have to extend the abstract class, so protected is as restricted as you can go.

    Do you know when/what version the meta directive might be in place?

    Thanks!

    Sorry, but we do not have a concrete release plan for this feature yet.
