Question: 1 / 510

How does an inner class access the members of its enclosing class?

Through a passed-in reference

Directly

An inner class can access the members of its enclosing class directly, without the need for a passed-in reference, reflection, or public getter methods. Option A is incorrect because an inner class does not need to be passed in a reference to access its enclosing class members. Option C is incorrect because reflection involves using Java APIs to manipulate classes and objects at runtime, which is not necessary in this case. Option D is incorrect because getter methods are not required to access members of the enclosing class from an inner class.
