    text
    copied!<p>Can you explain me how a Controller can call another Controller method in a simple but still correct way?</p> <p>Please provide some code!</p> <p>background: I Have 2 different Controllers-View-Model and 2 libraries and they need to communicate between each other:</p> <ol> <li><p>SettingsWindow/SettingsController/SettingsModel: Responsible for the app settings. The model is a singleton because I need the settings data all over the app;</p></li> <li><p>A Library for Monitoring a directory which creates an event every time a file is created in a specific directory. The monitored dir path is defined in the SettingsModel; I'm using the Java 7 WatchService API for that;</p></li> <li><p>A Library for Monitoring a webserver and download new files. The webserver address and the save directory are both defined in the SettingsModel; I'm using HttpsUrlConnection and a timer for that;</p></li> <li><p>MainWindow/MainController/MainModel: Responsible for the main app window, which has a table that must be updated every time a new file is created in the monitored directory, and also everytime a file is downloaded by the above libraries.</p></li> </ol> <p>So how do I correctly Instantiate and communicate those 4 different features?<br> How do their Controllers commnuicate between them, since they are all related? How should I organize this project in terms of MVC?</p> <p>PLEASE provide the basic MVC scaffold (skeleton) and show where I create the instances, where and how I call each others method. I'm new to Java, specially swing and mvc. I've read a lot, but I got stuck in this situation.</p>
