Functions in the same module can access `private` members.
Functions in the same package (or in whatever package you
specify) can access `package` members. That is how D does
"friends".
So the answer to your question depends on how the C++ code is
organized.
It's always possible that something in C++ here is not
translatable into D, but most likely can be redesigned (and
likely better designed).

Yes, it seems like seperating chunks of C++ code into seperate
modules and using the
```d
package(qualifiedIdentifier)
```
access specifier seems to be the way to go.
Was wondering if there was some wizardry that the veterans knew
that would make it less difficult, but it seems this is the only
way.
Thank you very much for replying!
