Get variable value from protected method in another class

Brand new to Android and Java...

I have a protected method in Class2 as follows:

protected void onListClick(List 2, View view, int position, long id)
{

.....

int Count = cursor.GetInt(countIndex);

........
}

I need access the value from Count from Class2.

in the Class1(where trying to access value from Class2) I have int getValue = Class2.Count;

Why is this not working?

Count is a local variable, so it cannot be accessed by other classes. You can make a static class member of Class2 instead.

class Class2 {
    static int Count;
    ...
    protected void onListClick(List 2/*invalid name*/, View view, int position, long id)
    {
        ...
        Count = cursor.GetInt(countIndex);
        ...
    }
}

A suggestion for the future: name all variables and methods using camelCase, and never with numbers or special characters. Some incorrect examples from your code: int Count, List 2, GetInt().
