• Gide Nwawudu (4/24) Apr 10 2009 Looks like a variant of bug 314.
• Flo (5/10) Apr 12 2009 I see.
• Stewart Gordon (5/7) Apr 19 2009 Actually, it's this one

Hi,

Im kinda confused about the protection attributes on module level.
The case:
I've got 2 modules.
test1.d

module test1;

import test2;

int main(char[][] args)
{
	Test2Struct s;
	return 0;
}

and test2.d

module test2;

private struct Test2Struct
{
	int var;
}


From my understanding of the docs, i shouldn't be able to use the struct in
test1. But it compiles and runs fine and so i'm not sure how to hide symbols to
other modules. Is it possible at all?

(oh and im using dmd 1.043)

Looks like a variant of bug 314.

I see.
Although this means its not only a problem with static, selective or renamed
imports but with importing in general.
And I think this is a severe one since protection is kinda important to OO
programming.
