使用协议、闭包和嵌套/内部类的组合，现在可以使用模块模式来隐藏Swift中的信息。它不是很干净，也不是很好读，但它确实有用。

例子:

protocol HuhThing {
  var huh: Int { get set }
}

func HuhMaker() -> HuhThing {
   class InnerHuh: HuhThing {
    var innerVal: Int = 0
    var huh: Int {
      get {
        return mysteriousMath(innerVal)
      }

      set {
       innerVal = newValue / 2
      }
    }

    func mysteriousMath(number: Int) -> Int {
      return number * 3 + 2
    }
  }

  return InnerHuh()
}

HuhMaker()
var h = HuhMaker()

h.huh      // 2
h.huh = 32 
h.huh      // 50
h.huh = 39
h.huh      // 59

innerVal和mysterousmath隐藏在这里，不被外部使用，试图挖掘对象的方法应该会导致错误。

我只是阅读了Swift文档的一部分，所以如果这里有缺陷，请指出来，我很想知道。

Swift 3和4也为变量和方法的访问级别带来了很多变化。Swift 3和4现在有4个不同的访问级别，其中开放/公共访问是最高(限制最少)的访问级别，私有访问是最低(限制最多)的访问级别:

private functions and members can only be accessed from within the scope of the entity itself (struct, class, …) and its extensions (in Swift 3 also the extensions were restricted) fileprivate functions and members can only be accessed from within the source file where they are declared. internal functions and members (which is the default, if you do not explicitly add an access level key word) can be accessed anywhere within the target where they are defined. Thats why the TestTarget doesn't have automatically access to all sources, they have to be marked as accessible in xCode's file inspector. open or public functions and members can be accessed from anywhere within the target and from any other context that imports the current target’s module.

有趣:

与其将每个单独的方法或成员标记为“private”，你可以在类/结构的扩展中覆盖一些方法(例如典型的helper函数)，并将整个扩展标记为“private”。

class foo { }

private extension foo {
    func somePrivateHelperFunction01() { }
    func somePrivateHelperFunction02() { }
    func somePrivateHelperFunction03() { }
}

为了获得更好的可维护代码，这可能是一个好主意。你可以很容易地切换到非私有(例如单元测试)，只需要改变一个词。

Swift 3.0提供了5种不同的访问控制:

开放 公共 内部 fileprivate 私人

Open access and public access enable entities to be used within any source file from their defining module, and also in a source file from another module that imports the defining module. You typically use open or public access when specifying the public interface to a framework. Internal access enables entities to be used within any source file from their defining module, but not in any source file outside of that module. You typically use internal access when defining an app’s or a framework’s internal structure. File-private access restricts the use of an entity to its own defining source file. Use file-private access to hide the implementation details of a specific piece of functionality when those details are used within an entire file. Private access restricts the use of an entity to the enclosing declaration. Use private access to hide the implementation details of a specific piece of functionality when those details are used only within a single declaration. Open access is the highest (least restrictive) access level and private access is the lowest (most restrictive) access level.

默认访问级别

如果您自己没有明确指定访问级别，那么代码中的所有实体(除了少数特定的例外)都有一个默认的内部访问级别。因此，在许多情况下，您不需要在代码中指定显式的访问级别。

关于该主题的发布说明:

Classes declared as public can no longer be subclassed outside of their defining module, and methods declared as public can no longer be overridden outside of their defining module. To allow a class to be externally subclassed or a method to be externally overridden, declare them as open, which is a new access level beyond public. Imported Objective-C classes and methods are now all imported as open rather than public. Unit tests that import a module using an @testable import will still be allowed to subclass public or internal classes as well as override public or internal methods. (SE-0117)

希望为那些想要类似保护方法的人节省一些时间:

与其他答案一样，swift现在提供了“private”修饰符——它是按文件定义的，而不是像Java或c#那样按类定义的。这意味着如果你想要受保护的方法，如果它们在同一个文件中，你可以使用swift私有方法

创建一个基类来保存“受保护的”方法(实际上是私有的) 子类化这个类以使用相同的方法 在其他文件中，您不能访问基类方法，即使您创建了子类

文件1:

class BaseClass {
    private func protectedMethod() {
        
    }
}

class SubClass : BaseClass {
    func publicMethod() {
        self.protectedMethod()  //this is ok as they are in same file
    }
}

文件2:

func test() {
    var a = BaseClass()
    a.protectedMethod() //ERROR


    var b = SubClass()
    b.protectedMethod() //ERROR
}

class SubClass2 : BaseClass {
    func publicMethod() {
        self.protectedMethod() //ERROR
    }
}

对于Swift 1-3:

不，不可能。这里根本没有任何私有/受保护的方法和变量。

一切都是公开的。

更新 从Swift 4开始，可能会在这个帖子中看到其他答案

语言语法没有关键字“public”，“private”或“protected”。这意味着一切都是公开的。当然，可以有一些替代方法来指定没有这些关键字的访问修饰符，但我在语言参考中找不到它。
