Declaring a friend

To declare a function as a friend of a class, precede the function prototype in the class definition with keyword friend. To declare all member functions of class ClassTwo as friends of class ClassOne, place a declaration of the form

friend class ClassTwo;

in the definition of class ClassOne.

Friendship is granted, not taken—for class B to be a friend of class A, class A must explicitly declare that class B is its friend. Friendship is not symmetric—if class A is a friend of class B, you cannot infer that class B is a friend of class A. Friendship is not transitive—if class A is a friend of class B and class B is a friend of class C, you cannot infer that class A is a friend of class C.
