How can I call a variable from another class

hi
If I have two classes : one and two
In class two I have a variable called : action
In class one I want to check what is the value of action.
How can I call action?

Thank you scorbett
what you told me worked fine, but my problem is that MyClass2 is an application by itself that I don't want to be executed.
Creating myClass2 as in the following:
MyClass2 myClass2 = new MyClass2();
[/code]
executes myClass2.
Can I prevent the exectuion of MyClass2, or is there another way to call the variable (action)?

How do you call a method from another class without extending as a parent?

How do you call a method from another class without extending it as a parent? Is this possible?

Why don't you just create an instance of the class?
Car c = new Car();
c.drive("fast");The drive method is in the car class, but as long as the method is public, you can use it anywhere.
Is that what you were asking or am I totally misunderstanding your question?

How to call a variable from another class?

Greetings
I�m designing a program that is called Senior.java, and I want to design it�s menus, for simplicity in reading the code, I want to write a separate java file for each menu. For example I want a file.java, edit.java etc�.
Since I�m not a professional I�m having problems in calling the variable �bar�, that I created in senior.java,
In Senior.java I have :
JMenuBar bar = new JMenuBar();
setJMenuBar( bar );
In fileMenu.java I want to add file menu to the menu bar �bar�:
bar.add( fileMenu );
When I compile the fileMenu.java I got a �cannot resolve symbol � message, where symbol is the variable bar.
Can you please help me, knowing that i'm using SDK1.4.1?

Sun has recommendations for naming conventions. Class names should start with a capital letter. You should avoid using class names that are the same as classes provided in the SDK. Following these conventions will make it easier for people to help you. For example, you should not use file, nor should you use File. It's better to use MyFile, replacing My with something that makes sense to your application (SeniorFile?).
Also, check the Formatting Help link when posting for a desciption on how to use the code tags for posting code.
1. You need to establish references between your classes. One way is to have a constructor that has a JMenuBar argument.
2. You can not add a file to a JMenuBar because a JMenuBar adds a JMenu. I don't think you want file to extend JMenu. It may be better for file to have a JMenu.
I haven't tried to compile this code so no guarantees - just trying to show you an approach.
public class Senior extends JFrame {
   public Senior() {
      JMenuBar bar = new JMenuBar();
      MyFile file = new MyFile(bar);
//whatever else you need
public class MyFile {
   public MyFile(JMenuBar mbar) {
      JMenu menu = new JMenu();
      mbar.add(menu);

How can I update a JTextArea from another class

I am new to Java so forgive me if this is confusing, or if I seem to be taking an overly complex route to acheiving my goal.
I've got a JTextArea component added to a JPanel object, which is then inserted into the JFrame. I have a JMenuBar with a JMenu "file" and a JMenuItem "connect" on this same JFrame. When clicked, the actionEvent of JMenuItem "connect" calls a class "ConnectToDb" to establish a connection with the Database. On a successful connection, I want to append the String "Connection Successful" to the JTextArea component, but since the component is a part of the JPanel object, I cannot seem to get access to the JTextArea component to update it. I tried instantiating the JPanel object from within the "ConnectToDb" class and then called a method I created to set the JTextArea. No luck. Can someone give me an idea of what I need to do that would allow me to update the text of the JTextArea component from anywhere in my program? Once it has been contained in the JPanel or JFrame, can it be updated?
This is the class that establishes the simple Db Connection

Thanks gmaurice1. I appreciate the response. I believe I understand your explanation. I am clear that the calling code needs access to the WelcomPane() object. I am assuming that the constructor for the calling class must have the JPanel WelcomePane() instance passed to it as an argument. This way I can refer directly to this specific instance of the object. Is this correct?
Also, where would you create the set method? I tried to create a set method as part of the WelcomePane() class, and then call it from the calling class, but it didn't seem to work. Lastly, a globally accessible object? Can you explain this concept briefly? Thanks again for your help.

How can i call one report from another report (Drill Down Approach)

Hi Friends,
I've two reports in completely different layout format.
One is in Crosstab & another is in Tabular.
Now i want to call my Tabular report(report 1) from my Crosstab (report 2) without using BO's default drill down feature. Or, you can show using BO's feature if it supports my requirement.
How to do that?
Is it at all possible?
Please share your thoughts. Thanks in advance for your time.
Regards.
Satyaki De.

hi
you can use openDocument for this.
[http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/xi3-1_url_reporting_opendocument_en.pdf]
I would suggest to use variables that build the HTML code for the hyperlinks dynamically, and display them in your crosstab. Set the display option for the related cells (ie. the cells where your variables are displayed in) so that the cell's contents as interpreted as HTML code.
Regards,
Stratos

Hello Marse!
Sorry that I was not clear enough and add the hwo-to via OLE
For way 1. you have to add this lines to your Excel VBA code:
loadscript = IDIACommand.TextVarSet("T1","Value of T1")
For way 2. it is:
loadscript = IDIACommand.CmdExecuteSync("GlobalDim('MyGlobalVar'")
loadscript = IDIACommand.VariantVarSet("MyGlobalVar","Value of MyGlobalVar")
Inserted before your line
loadscript = IDIACommand.CmdExecuteSync("scriptstart('C:\BForce\LIBR\BForce2.VBS')")
Hope it is clear now! Otherwise feel free to ask

Move the domain.sites file from one computer to the other.
The file is located under User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites. Move this file to the same location on the other computer and double click and iWeb will open it. Remember, it is your User Library that you want and not your System Library, as you will not find iWeb there.
Just create a new site on the same domain file and it will appear below the other site. If you want them side by side then duplicate your domain file and have one site per a domain file and they can then be side by side.

Calling a method from another class... that requires variables?

I'm calling a method from another class to change the date (its a date object) in another class.
I keep getting the error 'setDate(int,int,int) in Date cannot be applied to ()'
My code is:
public int changeDate()
cycleDate.setDate();
}I'm guessing I need to pass 3 parameters (day, month, year), but I'm not sure how! I have tried, but then I get errors such as ')' expected?
Any ideas! :D

Any ideas! :Dyou need to post your code if you're getting specific errors like that.
but typically ')' expected means just that, you have too many or not enough parenthesis (or in the wrong place, etc.)
