[Pablo3728]

Hello! I have a doubt with the next:

I have a JFrame called Pablo and other called Pepe;
Both Jframe have a attribute String text;


I have a method:

public method(JFrame j){
//I need to do it sssomething with the variable text, like:
    j.text = "hola"
//But i don't know which JFrame is!!! How Can I do to know what is it?
}

Thanks! :)

Im not quite sure what you are saying. If you want the method to be specific to each frame, you could do this:

public method(JFrame j, String l)
{
j.text = l;
}
and call it like this: method(Pablo, "text");

Alternatively, you may be confusing the use of an argument. When you call a method, you would call it like this : method(Pablo);
that Pablo is then passed to j. j is now sort of a nickname for pablo. So now you would say j.text = "hola";

I would tend to go more towards an OOP solution where the code holding the JTextField in question has a public method called setMyText(String text), and sets the JTextField's text from within this method.
