The following compiles without complaint, and I can't for the life of me see why. Maybe a noob error that belongs on the 'learn' NG, but it's surprising to say the least.

This is with both 0.126 and 0.127

------------

class Test
{
private int a;

private { int b; }

private:
int c;
}

void main()
{
Test test = new Test;
test.a = 1;
test.b = 1;
test.c = 1;
}

Private is ignored within the same file iirc (because it assumes you know what you're doing if you mess with your own classes.)

Not a bug. You can access private stuff within the same module. It's D's solution to friendship.

Like the others said, private is ignored inside the same file :/ not truely OOP, I made a post to complain about it, but it seems not many people agree with me.
