In Delphi private members are visible to all the classes in the same unit.

For a member to be accessible only in its class, it needs to be declared strict private.

Increasing the visibility of members: Error?

"You can increase the visibility of a member in a descendent class by redeclaring it,"

So far as I can tell, this is not, in general, true. It appears only to be true of properties. So not for methods and fields.

If there *is* some syntax to achieve such elevated visibility for methods and fields, please provide a link to it. Gwideman (talk) 13:19, 22 September 2013 (PDT)
