An innerclass can access the private data member of its enclosing
class implicitly,

class enclosing {
  class inner {
     { style = 1; }
  }
  private int style;
}

is OK, but the following equivalent code causes a compiler error:

class enclosing {
  class inner {
     { enclosing.this.style = 1; }
  }
  private int style;
}
