The simplest way is to declare the private members of the base class as protected instead. class Base{ protected: ... } If you really need the members private, you can otherwise declare the derived class as a friend of the base class in the base class definition. class Base{ friend class Derived; };

Private scope is *especially designed* to prevent access from any other entity than the class and it's instances. If you want to access a member better use protected scope as already was pointed out.
