[Bluej-discuss] How to call an accessor mehtod in a different class?

[Tony Pattison]

Aryeh, thanks for the hint. There is no way that I would have guessed or
stumbled on that particular syntax.

As to students not posting here. Sorry. But I'm teaching myself from
this book (that was exercise 4.26 of OFWJ) at home, so I have no
instructor to ask. That said, if you could point me at a more
appropriate forum/mailing list, I'd be grateful.

thanks again

Tony
