ios - Is any UIKit element declared in .h file public or protected in objective c? -

i newbie in ios development , have doubt if declare uikit element such uilabel *label in some.h file not in .m file, protected or public other classes if import class class , access using class instance?

#import <uikit/uikit.h>  @interface latestnews_viewcontroller : uiviewcontroller @property (strong, nonatomic) iboutlet uiimageview *latestnewsbackimg; @property (strong, nonatomic) iboutlet uiimageview *latestnewsdateimg; @property (strong, nonatomic) iboutlet uilabel *latestnewsdate; 

is latestnewsdate public or protected??

1). properties in code can accessed class importing "latestnews_viewcontroller". i.e. public classes.

2). can make private property in class

example:

@interface latestnews_viewcontroller : uiviewcontroller { nsstring *latestnewsbackimg;  //private nsstring *latestnewsdateimg;  //private }  nsarray *array;  //public  @end
