Hello,

I am working on a Windows Forms Control Library project which has some
unmanaged code in it. This library will be used in C# Windows
Application. Some of the managed classes have protected unmanaged class
members. They must be reached by other classes inside the Library, but
not outside. In old times, I would achieve this by:

class A
{
 // managed code does not support this?
 friend class B;

protected:
 CUnmanagedClass *pProtectedMember;
  void ProtectedMethodOfA() {}

public:
 void PublicMethodOfA() {}
}

class B
{
public:
 void DoSomeWork()
 {
   // I could reach protected members and methods of A in old times...
   InstanceOfA->pProtectedMember->DoSomething();
   InstanceOfA->ProtectedMethodOfA();
 }
}

How can I do it in managed code?

Thank you!
