Use data from different class in the current project java

Question

I'm facing a problem regarding of using the data from rf transmision on a class that I wish to use to store on the database. Code 1 is the code for the RF transmission. Is there anyway I can use the data in the highlight of data to be used in code 1?

public synchronized void serialEvent(SerialPortEvent oEvent) {
    if (oEvent.getEventType() == SerialPortEvent.DATA_AVAILABLE) {
        try {

            String inputLine=input.readLine();
            String[] parts = inputLine.split(",");
            String part1 = parts[0]; 
            String part2 = parts[1];
            System.out.print(part1); // data to be used 
            System.out.print(" , ");
            System.out.println(part2); //data to be used
            //System.out.println(data);

Answer 1

I am probably still confused as to what your asking. I think the simplest way for another class to use the variables would be for it to be passed the values in arguments to one of its functions.

eg.

class ClassThatUsesPart1Part2 {

    public void usePart1Part2(String part1, String part2) {
        // put code that uses part1 and part2 here
    }
}

Add another variable to your class.

private BufferedReader input;
/** The output stream to the port */
private OutputStream output;
/** Milliseconds to block while waiting for port open */
private static final int TIME_OUT = 2000;
/** Default bits per second for COM port. */
private static final int DATA_RATE = 9600;

/** Variable of class that will use part1, part2.*/
private ClassThatUsesPart1Part2 part12User = new ClassThatUsesPart1Part2();

Then use it within your function.

        String inputLine=input.readLine();
        String[] parts = inputLine.split(",");
        String part1 = parts[0]; 
        String part2 = parts[1];
        part12User.usePart1Part2(part1,part2);

Is this what you were looking for or have I just completely misunderstood?
