Why allow changing package-private to protected? That is a retrograde step. If the code works without exposing the variables as protected, then keep it like that otherwise we cannot change implementation later. IMO the main reason for using p-p access is allowing access outside a class but without affecting the external API. Only constants should be part of the public/protected API, and even those should be carefully considered. > Gary > > >> >> > On 8 Nov 2016 12:15 am, "Gary Gregory" <garydgreg...@gmail.com> wrote: >> > >> >> On Mon, Nov 7, 2016 at 4:11 PM, sebb <seb...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> >> >> > On 6 November 2016 at 19:56, Gary Gregory <garydgreg...@gmail.com> >> >> wrote: >> >> > > Hi all, >> >> > > >> >> > > I see ivars left at the package access level.
