That is a very very odd piece of reasoning. I know that MSVC builds the access right into the signature. That means, changing from protected to public would break apps that derive from the class and call the formerly-protected method. But if it's private.... nobody could possibly call it from the outside [assuming no "friends" hack, but that's not the case here], so why would it matter? -- David Faure, fa...@kde.org, http://www.davidfaure.fr Working on KDE Frameworks 5
