    Default Re: Call a method

    Question moved to new thread.

    how can I call this method
    To call a method in a class, get an instance of the class and use the dot notation to call the class:
       referenceToClass.theMethodToCall(); // call theMethodToCall

    One way to get a reference to an instance of the class is to use a new statement:
     SomeClass referenceToClass =  new SomeClass();    // create instance of SomeClass
    If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
