Question

If you inherit from an activity where certain member variables were declared, how do you access these member variables in the subclass executing the inheritance?

Answer 1

public or protected member names can be accessed via this.memberName from any constructor or non-static method or initializer.

private or package level members (accessed from a subclass in a different package) cannot be accessed directly and will need to be accessed via an unprivileged interface such as a public getter.
