Overview

Modifies the current parsing visibility (public, protected, or private). If this directive is defined on a docstring attached to an object definition, it is applied only to that object. Otherwise, it applies the visibility to all future objects in the namespace.

Examples:

Modifying the visibility of a DSL method

# @!visibility private
cattr_accessor :subclasses

Modifying the visibility of a set of methods

# Note that Ruby's "protected" is recommended over this directive
# @!visibility protected

# Documentation for method1
def method1; end

# Documentation for method2
def method2; end
