Problem with variables in java

[carl]

Hi, I have code that works but i just need to get it so there are 3 variables that are set throughout the whole file.

The first variable needs to be a list the others just whole numbers. Here is the code if you want to help me out

Code:

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;

public class Game implements KeyListener {
    JFrame gameFrame;
    JLabel gameOutput;
    JPanel gamePanel;
    JTextField typingArea;

    public Game() {
        //Create and set up the window.
        gameFrame = new JFrame("Text Game");
        gameFrame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        gameFrame.setSize(new Dimension(120, 40));
        gamePanel = new JPanel(new GridLayout(2, 2));
        addWidgets();
        gameFrame.getContentPane().add(gamePanel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
        //Display the window.
        gameFrame.pack();
        gameFrame.setVisible(true);
    }
    private void addWidgets() {
        //Create widgets.
        gameOutput = new JLabel("Press an Arrow Key");
        typingArea = new JTextField(20);
        typingArea.addKeyListener(this);

        //Listen to events from the Convert button.
        gameOutput.addKeyListener(this);

        //Add the widgets to the container.
        gamePanel.add(gameOutput);
        gamePanel.add(typingArea);
        
        gameOutput.setBorder(BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder(5,5,5,5));
    }

    public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) {

    }
    public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) {

    }
    public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) {
    	int keyCode = e.getKeyCode();
    	switch (keyCode) {
    		case KeyEvent.VK_UP:
    		gameOutput.setText("Up");
    		break;
    		case KeyEvent.VK_DOWN:
    		gameOutput.setText("Down");
    		break;
    		case KeyEvent.VK_LEFT:
    		gameOutput.setText("Left");
    		break;
    		case KeyEvent.VK_RIGHT:
    		gameOutput.setText("Right");
    		break;
    		}
    		}
    private static void createAndShowGUI() {
        //Make sure we have nice window decorations.
        JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true);

        Game converter = new Game();
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        //Schedule a job for the event-dispatching thread:
        //creating and showing this application's GUI.
        javax.swing.SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                createAndShowGUI();
            }
        });
    }

}

Thanks.

need to get it so there are 3 variables that are set throughout the whole file.
For these to be accessible to everything, ie, all methods, in the class it needs to be in class scope. Variables that have class scope are called member variables (among other things).

Code:

public class Game implements KeyListener {
    JFrame gameFrame;
    JLabel gameOutput;
    JPanel gamePanel;
    JTextField typingArea;
    // Declare them as member variables in class scope.
    JList list;
    int aConstant;
    int anotherConstant;

    public Game() {
