It's all correct but one more must-be-notified and
interesting point i would like to add here along with these
is as follows.

When a protected class is extended by any other class, the
child class (in case it belongs to any other package) can
have the inheritance of the protected parent class. What if
any third class extends that child class of the protected
parent class?
Example:
PrClass1 is a protected class in package1.

Child1 is another class, belongs to package2.

..class Child1 extends PrClass1..

Here, Child1 is a class which gets all inheritance of
PrClass1.
Now, i have another class SubChilld1 belongs to package2
itself.

..class SubChild1 extends Child1..

What happens now? what happens to the PrClass1's members
which are now encapsulated by Child1???

Here we go...

Whenever the protected class is extended by any other
class, which is not in the same package, that class's
members will become private to that child class. So, even
if that child class is extended by any other class, the
private memebers of this child class cannot be accessed by.

This is a wonderful and nice point that has to be noticed.

Thanks.
