Hi
get_IsPublic() property returns true if this field is public; otherwise, false and get_IsFamily() propety returns true if the field has the Family attribute set; otherwise, false.But in the following code it returns true and false repectively whether it is declared as protected in J# Can you help me out
Thanks
The actual code is as follow
import System.*
import System.Reflection.*
public class FieldInfoClas

public int myField1 = 0
protected String myField2 = null

public static void main(String[] args

FieldInfo myFieldInfo[]
Type myType = FieldInfoClass.class.ToType()

// Get the type and fields of FieldInfoClass
myFieldInfo = myType.GetFields((BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.Public))
Console.WriteLine("\nThe fields of " + "FieldInfoClass are \n")

// Display the field information of FieldInfoClass
for (int i = 0; i < myFieldInfo.length; i++)
Console.WriteLine("\nName : {0}", myFieldInfo[i].get_Name())
Console.WriteLine("Declaring Type : {0}", myFieldInfo[i].get_DeclaringType())
Console.WriteLine("IsPublic : {0}", System.Convert.ToString(myFieldInfo[i].get_IsPublic()))
Console.WriteLine("MemberType : {0}", myFieldInfo[i].get_MemberType())
Console.WriteLine("FieldType : {0}", myFieldInfo[i].get_FieldType())
Console.WriteLine("IsFamily : {0}", System.Convert.ToString(myFieldInfo[i].get_IsFamily()))

} //mai
} //FieldInfoClas

J#(Java's) scoping rules are a bit different from that of other languages
in .net - A Java protected member means, it can be accessible from the
derived classes or from anyone in the same package. The J# compiler
implements this rule by making the member as public, but also marks this
member with a flag which only the J# compiler(and also the Java reflection
engine) understands. So in this present scenario, if you use Java
reflection(java.lang.reflect) you would get the proper results.

If you want to use .net Reflection as you have done below, then compile the
assembly using "/ss" (secure scoping) option of the compiler - if you use
this option the J# compiler will make the protected member as
familyOrAssembly. For details on secure scoping please read on the
following link
