Hi!!
This error means that you are mixing up static and non-static methods. If you keep items() as you wrote it, then it's not a static method, and you'll have to create or use an Output variable in the blah() method. If I'm not clear:
In Output, you put:
public int items()
return doneItemCount;
And in Input, you put either:
public void blah()
int test = new Output().items();//not very useful
or, if you declared and instanciated an Output variable(say blabla) somewhere else in the Input class, you put:
public void blah()
int test = blabla.items();
Anyway, you should keep items() non-static, since it needs to access to an attribute(doneItemCount).
Hope this'll help. When I first met this error, I thought it was quite a weird solution, but you get used to it. And the compiler leaves you alone :).
