[Caml-list] private methods too private?

[Caml-list] private methods too private?

[Shaddin Doghmi]

Private methods in an object are visible only inside that object. I 
would like to have methods that can be invoked by other objects of that 
class, but not anywhere else.  Is it possible to do something like this, 
and if so what is the preferred way to do it?
