Ok, trying to do this but struggling.

I created a class as follows:

package com.dtwconsulting.golfcaddie;

import android.app.Application;

public class globalVars extends Application{

    public String apiKey = "XXXXXXXXXXXX";

    public String getApiKey() {
        return apiKey;
     }
}

Now, how do I get the value of the apiKey from somewhere else? Sorry, this is just my lack of knowledge on Java here. I was hoping it was something like globalVars.getApiKey(), but that doesn't seem to work.

I tend to do what TreKing suggested. I have a class called CommonVariables that really holds static strings for Flurry event names, the year parameter for my app (it's seasonal and changes once a year) which is used all over the place, and things like that.

        What is the best way of going about setting up global variables?


    IDK about "best", but "easy": public static values somewhere that
    you set up in a custom Application class.
