access to private members of internal class

Class A
{
public:
    class B;
    int funct(const B &b);
};

Class A::B
{
private:
    int _member;
};

int A::funct(const A::B &b)
{
    return 10*b._member; //won't compile
}

////////////////////////////
The above code will not compile, as I get a error to the effect of
member _member not accessable from A::funct(const A::B&)

Is there anyway around this, short of declaring _member to be public?

Thanks,

~S
