# readability-redundant-access-specifiers

Finds classes, structs, and unions containing redundant member (field and method) access specifiers.

## Example

    class Foo {
    public:
      int x;
      int y;
    public:
      int z;
    protected:
      int a;
    public:
      int c;
    }

In the example above, the second `public` declaration can be removed without any changes of behavior.

## Options

CheckFirstDeclaration

  If set to true, the check will also diagnose if the first access specifier declaration is redundant (e.g. `private` inside `class`, or `public` inside `struct` or `union`). Default is false.

### Example

    struct Bar {
    public:
      int x;
    }

If CheckFirstDeclaration option is enabled, a warning about redundant access specifier will be emitted, because `public` is the default member access for structs.
