Hi all,

I have the following piece of code -

*******************************************************************************************
1. package MyPack;
2.
3. public class Balance {
4.    private String name;
5.    private  double bal;
6.
7.    protected Balance() {
8.
9.    }
10.
11.           protected Balance (String A,double B) {
12.        name = A;
13.        bal = B;
14.    }
15.
16.    protected void Show () {
17.
18.        System.out.println(name +" : $"+bal);
19.    }
20. } /*class Balance*/
21.
22. // Subclass of Balance in a different package
23.
24. package testing;
25.
26. import MyPack.Balance;
27.
28. public class TestBalance extends Balance{
29.
30.    public static void main(String args[]) {
31.
32.        Balance mybalance = new Balance("Someone",1000);
33.        mybalance.Show();
34.
35.    }
36. } /*class TestBalance*/

*******************************************************************************************************

While compiling the above code, I'm getting the following error in
line #32 -
"The constructor Balance(String,double) is not visible"

and the following error in line #33 -
 "The method Show() from the type Balance is not visible"

Could someone please explain to me the reasoning behind these errors.
As I understand, protected members are accesible to the subclasses in
a different package.

Any pointers to any reading material will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Sayantan Chowdhury
