Problem with method and classes

hi guys, i'm new to the java language, so I met some difficulties undestanding a code line:

Code:

---

List<Diary> list = query<Diary>(diaries).execute();

---

I need to generate classes and methods that allow to use that line of code. So i've 2 questions:

1. There's a way to use query<Diary>(diaries) as a method that returns an object (istance of a class with the method execute) without the syntax object.method() or class.method()?

Moreover, i could define this method within a class where I've to use that line of code, but i would use that line of code also in other classes.

2. There's an alternative way to call that method without the standard syntax?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Make it a local method.
You could call a local method (however it does have the implied this. object reference)

But if I wish use that method also in other classes? without standard syntax: instanceName.methodName(); or className.methodName(); (the 2nd in case of static method)...

Have you tried using static imports?
