How do I declare a class as a friend that can be used outside the local
assembly?

If you want to be 'friend', wouldn't that by definition mean it can only be
used in the assembly it is in?

If you want it to be used both inside and outside the assembly, it should be
public.

Click to expand...

You could do it as protected if you want it to be only accessed by
derived members of the same class... otherwise public does have to be
used to get it available outside the assembly.
