[_lithium_]

How would I go about loading another separate classes LinkedList with a number in my current class? I want to retrieve the number that is getting "pulled" (via the .pullOrder in this Run method) and load it into a linkedList called printerQueue in another class (called OrderQueue).

public class OrderHandler extends Thread	{
 
    private OrderQueue orderQueue;
 
 
    public OrderHandler(OrderQueue orderQueue)
    {	this.orderQueue = orderQueue;
 
    }
 
    public void run()	{
 
        Order order;
        while (true)	{
                order = orderQueue.pullOrder();     // get next available order
                OrderQueue.printerQueue = order;
                System.out.println("\t\t\t " + order.toString() + "    " + this.getName());
 
                try
                {	Thread.sleep(2000);		}             // delay two seconds
 
                catch (InterruptedException e) {}   	    // ignore interruptions
 
        }	// end while
 
    }	// end run method
 
}	// end OrderHandler class

Create a field and pass that linked list to your OrderHandler constructor (I can't remember whether OrderHandler is multi-thread safe, you'll need to check). Accessing that linked list works the same as accessing any other field.
