You can’t have two main methods. Anyway, I strongly suggest you read the Declaring Member Variables tutorial. This is very basic stuff.

I recommend you refactor your empCreate class to include a constructor and a getter for your Emp instance. For instance,

public class empCreate { 
    private Emp emp;

    public empCreate() { 
        emp = new Emp(); 
        emp.setEmpName("abc"); 
    } 

    public Emp getEmp(){
        return emp;
    }
} 

And then, in your Main class, you can simply do the following –

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        empCreate ec = new empCreate();
        String empName = ec.getEmp().getEmpName(); // obtain the emp name
    }
}
