I'm trying to call a method form a separate class file to my main program java file but when I try to call the method on an object, I get the error symbol cannot be found for the method. Both files are in the same directory.
//This is my main java file for the program
package pwmanager;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.fxml.FXMLLoader;
import javafx.scene.Parent;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
/**

* @author 176878
*/
public class PWManager extends Application {
@Override
public void start(Stage stage) throws Exception {
Parent root = FXMLLoader.load(getClass().getResource("Login.fxml"));
Scene scene = new Scene(root);
stage.setScene(scene);
stage.setTitle("Password Manager");
stage.setPrevStage(); //Error occurs here.
stage.show();
}
/**
* @param args the command line arguments
*/
public static void main(String[] args) {
launch(args);
}
}
//This is the other .java file where the method is declared.

Stage stage = new Stage();
FXMLLoader loader = new FXMLLoader(getClass().getResource("MainScreen.fxml"));
Parent mainScreen = (Parent)loader.load();
Scene scene = new Scene(mainScreen);
stage.setScene(scene);
stage.setTitle("Password Manager");
//prevStage.close();
stage.show();
}
@FXML

@FXML
public void removeAcctAction(ActionEvent event) throws IOException {
System.out.println("You clicked me, removing account!");
}
@Override
public void initialize(URL url, ResourceBundle rb) {
// TODO

}
I need to store the current stage so I can call it back or close the stage out.
