    Methods and attribute

    Hi,

    I wanted to know... I have an attribut for my construtor called :

    Code:
    util::Date m_openDate;
    I do not need to access it anywhere else, only in my class.

    So I wanted to know... I don't need to make a method get to get it right?

    I can just do something like that :

    Code:
    this->m_openDate.someMethod()

    Thanks

    if only your class will be accessing it, you can either use it directly, or you can create a private getter and setter. the choice is up to you. you do not need to make public accessors.
