Question

i’ve this code

public class MasterClass {

    private String myVariable;
    private ValuesClass objectA;

        class ValuesClass {

              public void method() {
                   myVariable = 1; // I can't access myVariable
              }
        }

} 

How to access myVariable from inside ValuesClass ?

Answer 1

What you are doing is exactly correct. Except that myVariable is a String, and you are trying to assign an int to it.

Now, if your inner class ALSO had a variable called myVariable, you would need some special syntax to access the one from the outer class:

MasterClass.this.myVariable = ...
