Get the item in JComboBox

[MaxMonic]

Hi.

I have a JComboBox called comboBox in gui.java.

Is it possible for to query the current selected item of the comboBox within another file.java ?

If so, how should I code it?

I already solved the issue.
I created a String powerState to save the value of newItem (value from combo box).

Then i just access the static field normally using Gui.powerState .

    
private void jcb_powerOffActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {                                             
        JComboBox cb = (JComboBox)evt.getSource();
        String newItem = cb.getSelectedItem().toString();
        powerState=newItem;
    }
