Friend Function implementation in MATLAB

20 views (last 30 days)
Typically, the private properties of a class are not accessible by any other class or function from outside.
But, a friend function can be granted special access to private and protected members of a class in C++.
Is there any way, I can implement this in MATLAB?
It would be really helpful if anyone could provide a sample code illustrating the implementation in MATLAB.
Thanks in advance.

Hello ,
I see that you are trying to achieve similar functionality of C++ friend functions in MATLAB.
In MATLAB, you can grant specific classes access to private properties and methods of another class by using access control lists. This might be helpful for your needs.
