Hello everyone!
I'm doing a project about treemaps and I used treemap library and the example of words treemap explained by Ben Fry in Visualizing Data. I need to make some modifications, but i have a problem when I'm trying access  a variable.

In the main tab I wrote:

import treemap.*;
Treemap map;
void setup( ) {
 size(1150, 768);
 smooth( );
 strokeWeight(2f);
 PFont font = createFont("verdana", 9);
 textFont(font);
 WordMap mapData = new WordMap( );  
 String[] lines = loadStrings("data_update.txt");
 for (int i = 0; i < lines.length; i++) {
   mapData.addWord(lines[i]);
 }
 mapData.finishAdd( );  
 map = new Treemap(mapData, 0, 0, width, height);
 
 noLoop( );

 if (lines.length>0 && lines.length<11) {
 int c=234;
 }
}

void draw( ) {
 background(255);
 map.draw( );
}

And in WordItem tab I have:

public class WordItem extends SimpleMapItem {
String word;
WordItem(String word) {
this.word = word;
}
void draw( ) {
fill(c);
rect(x, y, w, h);
fill(23,45,90);
textAlign(CENTER, CENTER);
text(word, x + w/2, y + h/2);
 }
}

It's obvious that processing cannot find anything named "c". However I tried write public methods and classes ... but anything works fine
Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot!

It's the same thing, return the same error: Cannot find anything named "c" . Processing doesn't recognize "c" in WordItem tab  

How can I transport the variable int c from the main tab to the WordItem tab?

Sorry NoahBuddy and danI !!!

I put "int c" after setup.
What a lame

Thanks!
