Sorry, cut and paste error; the second occurrence should have been -private.


     -public
           --show-module-contents api --show-packages exported 
--show-types public --show-members public

     -protected   (the long-standing default)
           --show-module-contents api --show-packages exported 
--show-types protected --show-members protected

     -package
           --show-module-contents all --show-packages all --show-types 
package --show-members package

     -private
           --show-module-contents all --show-packages all --show-types 
private --show-members private
