Declaration problem-protected: static member func.-

[ozgurgul]

I have a protected static member func. in ,let's say class A, and I want to use it from another (B) class' non-static member func. What shall I do in both classes' header file? Should I use friend reserved?
If the problem and question is not well understandable, let me know!!!
Thanks for any advance...

Making it a friend should work. You might also ask yourself why class B needs to access a non-public function in class A. Should the function be public instead? or maybe you should move the function to a base class and have class A & B derive from that base class...
