call a protected method on an instance of a class in typescript
index.ts
In TypeScript, you can call a protected method on an instance of a classbyfollowingthestepsbelow:
1. Createaclassthatcontainsaprotectedmethod. Forexample:
```typescriptclassMyClass{
protectedmyMethod() {
console.log("Hello, World!");
}
}
```
2. Create an instance of the class.
```typescript
const myInstance = new MyClass();
```
3. Call the protected method on the instance.
```typescript
myInstance.myMethod();
```
Note that you can only call a protected method from within the class or its subclasses. If you try to call the protected method from outside the class or its subclasses, you will get a compilation error.
```typescript
classMyOtherClass{
publiccallMyMethod(instance: MyClass) {
instance.myMethod(); // compilation error }
}

In the example above, MyOtherClass is not a subclass of MyClass, so it cannot call the protected method myMethod().
