What does public protected mean?

I am trying to create a instance of class but I keep on getting the following error message.

candidate function(s) not accessible

After going through the definition of the class which I was trying to instantiate, I realised that the constructor is declared as

public protected:  Class name (paramters);

What does "public protected" together at the same time mean?

Quoting the documentation:

Member is public inside the assembly but protected outside the assembly.
