Internal vs Private Access Modifiers

private - encapsulations in class scope struct ect    internal - encapsulation in assemblies

User · Answer

Internal will allow you to reference  say  a Data Access static class  for thread safety  between multiple business logic classes  while not subscribing them to inherit that class trip over each other in connection pools  and to ultimately avoid allowing a DAL class to promote access at the public level   This has countless backings in design and best practices   Entity Framework makes good use of this type of access

Private members are accessible only within the body of the class or the struct in which they are declared   Internal types or members are accessible only within files in the same assembly

User · Answer

internal members are accessible within the assembly  only accessible in the same project   private members are accessible within the same class   Example for Beginners  There are 2 projects in a solution  Project1  Project2  and Project1 has a reference to Project2     Public method written in Project2 will be accessible in Project2 and the Project1 Internal method written in Project2 will be accessible in Project2 only but not in Project1 private method written in class1 of Project2 will only be accessible to the same class  It will neither be accessible in other classes of Project 2 not in Project 1

User · Answer

internal members are visible to all code in the assembly they are declared in   And to other assemblies referenced using the  InternalsVisibleTo  attribute   private members are visible only to the declaring class    including nested classes   An outer  non-nested  class cannot be declared private  as there is no containing scope to make it private to   To answer the question you forgot to ask  protected members are like private members  but are also visible in all classes that inherit the declaring type    But only on an expression of at least the type of the current class
