Hi, I'm having trouble with my Java code. It's meant to read in from a csv file and update the elements on the GUI to reflect this e.g. as it reads in one line, images and text appear on the GUI reflecting the data.

Anyway, to get the GUI to work I needed to create another class and call the methods from there.
I can get the data (string) to display doing this, but I can't get the images (JLabels) to update.

The main class is:

public class GuiDisplay extends javax.swing.JFrame implements SensorListener
{
    public ImageIcon[] imgList;
    public String strLine;
    public String imageDir;
    public ImageIcon[] iconList;
    public ImageIcon[] imgLarge;
    public int dataCounter;
    public String data;

    /** Creates new form GuiDisplay */
    public GuiDisplay()
    {
        initComponents();
        initVariables();
        System.out.println("InitComp called...");
   

        SensorListenerRd SensorListener = new SensorListenerRd();
        SensorListener.addListener(this);
        Thread t = new Thread(SensorListener);
        t.start();
    }

   /**

    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        java.awt.EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable()
        {

            public void run()
            {
                GuiDisplay guiDisplay = new GuiDisplay();
                guiDisplay.setVisible(true);
                guiDisplay.pack();

                SimulatedData simulatedData = new SimulatedData(guiDisplay);
            }
        });
    }
   
    public ImageIcon[] loadImages(String imageDir, String[] imageFiles)
    {

        ImageIcon[] imageList = new ImageIcon[imageFiles.length];
        for (int i = 0; i < imageFiles.length; i++)
        {
            imageList[i] = new ImageIcon(imageDir + imageFiles[i]);
        }

        return imageList;
    }

    public ImageIcon[] resizeIcons(ImageIcon[] imageList, int b, int l)
    {
        ImageIcon[] iconList = new ImageIcon[imageList.length];
        for (int i = 0; i < imgList.length; i++)
        {
            iconList[i] = new ImageIcon(getSizedImage(imgList[i].getImage(), b, l));
        }
        return iconList;
    }

    public Image getSizedImage(Image srcImg, int b, int l)
    {
        BufferedImage resizedImg = new BufferedImage(b, l, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
        Graphics2D g2 = resizedImg.createGraphics();
        g2.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_INTERPOLATION, RenderingHints.VALUE_INTERPOLATION_BILINEAR);
        g2.drawImage(srcImg, 0, 0, b, l, null);
        g2.dispose();
        return resizedImg;
    }

    public void initVariables() {
    data = ""; //store sensor information for display
    dataCounter = 0; //counts number of sensor data
    // insert image location here
    imageDir = "C:\\directory\\package\\images\\";
    String[] imageFiles = {"door_open.jpg", "door_closed.jpg", "coffee.jpg", "teabags.jpg",
        "kettle.jpg", "cup.jpg", "fridge.jpg", "kettlecuppour.jpg",
        "microwave.jpg", "milk.jpg", "oven.jpg", "sugar.jpg", "cupboard.jpg"
    };
    imgList = loadImages(imageDir, imageFiles);
    iconList = resizeIcons(imgList, 56, 56);
    imgLarge = new ImageIcon[imageFiles.length];

    }

    public void setEventsText(String string) {
 eventsTextArea.setText(string);
    }

The other class deals with the "simulatedData". The data gets displayed to the eventsTextArea fine, however when I try to create a method in here and call it from the other class, it tells me for instance on

case 2088:   //2088, 24152, 2087
                                updateImg(pic2Label, "Took a cup", imgLarge[2]);
                                updateIcons(guiDisplayPanel, dataCounter, "kettle", iconList [2]);

that pic2Label (the name of my picture label on the GUI) and guiDisplayPanel (the name of the JPanel) can't be found.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
