Hi!
Could someone explain to me why this works? I has alway belived that
private variables were just private to that particular instance, but I
think this example shows that it is possible to reach the value of a
private variable in another instance of the same class.
Obviously I'm able to reach p2.name in the exmpale below from p1.display().
(I know beacues the class compiles and runs...)
But I can't explain why at the moment.
Anyone?
public class Person {
private String name = null;
public Person(String namn) {
this.name = namn;
}
public void display(Person p) {
System.out.println(p.name);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
Person p1 = new Person("Putte");
Person p2 = new Person("Quarolin");
p1.display(p2);
}
}
/Thomas
