[FIXED] How to get access to variables from other class

Issue

So I would like to use the variable "kierunek" from this class

public class Snake extends JPanel implements ActionListener{
char kierunek = 'D';

to this class

import pl.java.Snake.*;

public class MyKeyListener extends KeyAdapter {

importing shows "Unused import statement", I tried to find soulution, but there is nothing helping me

Solution

With Java you will have to either have to create a public Getter Method, or make the variable itself public.

As a object oriented Language Java differentiates between different access modifiers. More on that here: What is the difference between public, protected, package-private and private in Java?

Usually one should use Getter and Setter as accessors for the variables in order to avoid creating Problems.
