Subject: [ruby-core:90981] [Ruby trunk Feature#6198][Rejected] public/protected/private with attr_*

Issue #6198 has been updated by matz (Yukihiro Matsumoto).

Status changed from Assigned to Rejected

There's no use for `private` attr_reader, attr_writer, etc.
And `protected` is not encouraged enough for new features. So I reject this. 

Matz.


----------------------------------------
Feature #6198: public/protected/private with attr_*
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/6198#change-76198

* Author: riskwa (riskwa anon)
* Status: Rejected
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: matz (Yukihiro Matsumoto)
* Target version: 
----------------------------------------
I'd like to set visibility like this:

  class X
    protected attr_accessor :x, :y
  end

attached patch(for 1.9.3-p125) is sample implementation (it seems to pass test-all)
- make attr_* to return array of method-symbols which attr_* concerns (e.g. [:x, :x=, :y, :y=])
- make public/protected/private to accept array of symbols
