In AspectC++ the access rights on introduced base classes (as well as 
members, etc.) are determined by the access specifier in the aspect. For 
example ..

aspect MakePublicBase {
public: // <-- this determines the access right in the target classes
   advice targetClasses() : baseclass (CBase);
};

introduces a public base class.

Yours,
