How to access the variables that are in void onCreate class from another class (both are under activity subclass)?

Question

I am trying to access some of the onCreate class variables from another class that is under activity class, for example

..Acivity class(..)
        Class onCreate(..){
              Final int intItemNo = 0;

        } 

        Class testing(){
             //some commands here, will need access to the intItemNo above.
        } 
 };

Final int intItemNo = 0; this is local variable in `onCreate() method, not class variable. — Pete Houston

your stuffs above just don't make any sense to me, are you trying to say onCreate() and testing() are classes? — Pete Houston

Place the variable definition outside of the onCreate Class. I am assuming this code is from an activity class so onCreate is really a method not a class. It does not change the answer though. If it is not, onCreate is not a good name for class as it conflicts with an android method.

public class1 extends Activity {

    Final int intItemNo;

    public void  onCreate(..){
         intItemNo = 0;
    } 

    Class testing(){
         intItemNo = 1;
    } 
}

I am not confused between classes and methods. I know the difference. the issue I have is I was trying to get some vars that are located inside onCreate to be used on testing class.
