executing a method in main class

[rangers27]

Hello I need help. I'm learning Java and have been stuck on this for the past few days (I hope I will laugh at this one day!)


the problem I'm having is executing a method belonging to a class within the same package inside the main class's main method. Can you please make some suggestions.

Thank you

If you are getting compiler error message, please copy and paste them here.

Which Owner class method are you trying to execute?
You've defined the Owner class as a "singleton". Is that part of the assignment?

To get a reference to the Owner class you'd use the static method in Owner that returns a reference to it:
Owner ownr = Owner.getInstance(); // get reference to Owner

Then to call a method would be like with any other class:
ownr.<methodname>[(<args>)];

Norm thank you for your reply. Yes the Singleton is part of the intent. The method I'm trying to execute is getOwner so it would return the string "what can I do for you".

The error I keep getting is type Owner cannot be resolved. I tried to cast Owner but the error continues.

Once again thank you for your help.

Norm thank you. I took out the cast and did what you advised and it worked? Thank you for your help
