Question

I have this and I want to use something similar to the way Java uses .class files to be able to call events and use them in my main code.

The problem is that I cannot get the .class file to use my Dims

Form1.vb:

Namespace LFS_External_Client
    Public Class Form1
        Inherits Form

        Private OutGauge As OutGaugeInterface

        Dim SpeedPref As String
        Dim FuelCapacity As String
        Dim Fuel As String

        Public Sub New()
            InitializeComponent()
        End Sub

        Private Sub Form1_Load() Handles MyBase.Load
            Some Code
            GetFuel()
        End Sub
    End Class
End Namespace

Then in the Dataproccer.vb (.class file):

Public Class DataProcesser
    Public Sub GetFuel()
        Some Code
        Fuel = og.Fuel.ToString() * FuelCapacity
    End Sub
End Class

Code was shortened but has all of the relevant and necessary parts.

Answer 1

If you want to use the actual variables from the form instead of passing them through the method calls, you would need to declare them public instead of using dim:

...
Private OutGauge As OutGaugeInterface

Public SpeedPref As String
Public FuelCapacity As String
Public Fuel As String
...
