non static method cannot be referenced from a static context

[Dex]

Could someone please tell me why i'm getting this error ?
non static VARIABLE cannot be referenced from a static context
Thank you !

public class House{
 private String string1;

 public House(){}
 
 public String Method1{
 // do stuff
 return string1
}
public int Method2(String x){
// do stuff
}

public static void main (String args[]){  

Method1();
Method2(string1);

}
}

Suppose I want to say hello to you; in java that translates to me.sayHelloTo(you) where me and you are two objects of class Human. But that also implies that there has to be a 'me' and a 'you' and that is exactly your error: you want a House object to Method1 or Method2 but there is no House object (b.t.w. by convention method names start with a lower case letter).

kind regards,

Jos

Hi there, sorry I made a mistake ( its 4 am) I did create an object of type "House" and used it as h.method1(string1) , but the error I was getting was a VARIABLE error not METHOD ( my mistake)
