Passing a Statement Object into a Program Object

[Adomini]

The main issue is that I am having a reference to a non-static type, but Statement must be static.

Can I ensure that the syntax is at least right? This comes from a parser program. Error marked below in the code

public <Program> Program Parser (String fileName) throws FileNotFoundException, LexException
	{
		if (fileName == null)
			throw new IllegalArgumentException ("null string argument");
		lex = new LexicalAnalyzer2(fileName);
		
		 L = StatementList.getStatement();  //  ***this is the error ****
		Program prog = (L);
		
		return prog;
	}

StatementList class is shown below:

public class StatementList 
{
 
	
/**
 * This method takes the Statement List and returns the getStatement method.
 */
public StatementList ()
{
	getStatement();
}

// This method will use the Statement class with this project and privatize it and return it. 
// The Statement class will then use the line number, basic statement, and EOLN token.
 public static void getStatement() 
{
	//this.Statement = Statement;
	
	while (Parser.lex.moreTokens())
	{
		Parser.lex.getNextToken();
	}
	 System.out.println("no more tokens");
	
	
}


}

Thoughts?

L = StatementList.getStatement() assumes the method returns something but the method is void: public static void getStatement(). This does not return anything.

You are correct. Thank you!
