array

Yes, if B is a friend of A or if you create a function that returns the array (or a const reference to it).

Can you show me some sample codes on how to do it?

Thanks

You didn''t specify a language, so I''ll give it to you in C# :-)

public class A
{
 private string[] _myArray;

 //... other init code

 public string[] GetArray()
 {
  return this._myArray;
 }
}

public class B
{
 public void DoSomethingWithA(A refToA)
 {
  string[] localArray = refToA.GetArray();
  //Do something with the localArray now
 }
} 

Hope that helps,

alternatively, A could be coded to use a public property accessor instead of a public method to return the private array

public class A
{
 private string[] _myArray;
 
 //... other init code
 
 public string[] MyArray 
 {  
  get {return this._myArray;}
 }
}
 
public class B
{
 public void DoSomethingWithA(A refToA)
 {
  string[] localArray = refToA.MyArray;
  //Do something with the localArray now
 }
}
