I have a public static class within another public class as follows:
public class Foo<A> {
public static class Bar<A>{
A firstBar;
Bar(A setBar){
this.firstBar=setBar;
}
}
public final Bar<A> instanceBar;
public Foo(A actualValue) {
instanceBar = new Bar<A>(actualValue);
}
public Bar<A> getBar() {
return instanceBar;
}
My objective is to access instanceBar
's state from a separate class file without a get method and without changing the visibility of firstBar
. How do I accomplish this?
For example, the following says not visible
.
public class RetrieveFirstBar {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Foo z = new Foo(5l);
Foo.Bar<Long> z2 = z.getBar();
long k = z2.firstBar; //not visible!
}
}
