child2 has to have a reference to parent. you can set it either in the constructor of child2, or in a setter method in child2. of course this assumes that you are not going the reflection route. to nit pick, in OO terms, you are describing an aggregation relation not a parent-child so it is a little confusing to call them parent/child. perhaps container/element is better?

Hi, Hoping this is not a dumb question, maybe someone call help. The object model for my application contains a parent object (Parent) that has two other objects as properties (child1 and child2). In child1, there is a method (method1) that I want to call from child2. However, I am stumped on how to get a handle to child1 or even the parent from within child2 without having to pass a reference to child2 from a method in parent. Is there a way to call parent.child1.method1() from within parent.child2? Thanks, Richard Schramm
