Hi ,
There is only one case in which u can inherit a member into derived class by using PROTECTED Access specifire for that member . a member with protected specifire remain private for same class but it is possible to inherit this member into derived classes so this is the only way for this problem.

If we specify access specifier private to member of any class means it is private for that class.
Means child can inherit when parent will permit.
So if it is private it cannot be inherited.

Private members cannot be inherited,
only public and protected members can be inherited.
private members can be accessed with the help of FRIEND function.
protected members can inherit as protected,public members can be inherited as public, but private cannot be inherited.

We cannot even we use protected inheritance
Look:
class Dericed: protected Base
{
}
Protected inheritance
It is almost never used, except in very particular cases. With protected inheritance, the public and protected members become protected, and private members stay private.
To summarize in table form:
| Protected inheritance |
| Base access specifier | Derived access specifier | Derived class access? | Outside access?(Other calsses)
|
| Public | Protected | Yes | No |
| Private | Private | No | No |
| Protected | Protected | Yes | No |
Protected inheritance is similar to private inheritance. However, classes derived from the derived class still have access to the public and protected members directly. The public (stuff outside the class) does not.

For more explanation, you can see in my previous answer that we can inherit, but we can not access it from the derived class.

if you can declare the sub class in the base class (i.e if you make sub class as inner class in base class), you will be able to access the private members of the base class.
