By default, the access control is like a FRIEND. But this time friend mean, accessible to the whole package. PROTECTED is accessible to the derived classes as well as to the package, so less restricted than FRIEND.   -----Original Message----- From: A mailing list for discussion about Sun Microsystem's Java Servlet API Technology.
