Can anyone tell me how to send a message (float value) from one class to
the other?

I have two classes that are subclasses of View.
RotatorView and
TextView (with a method called rotateText)

I would like to send a float value from 'RotatorView' to the method 
'rotateText' in the 'TextView' class.  The name of the global variable in 
'TextView' is textRotationAngle.

How can I send the message?
Should RotatorView be a subclass of TextView or is it fine as a subclass of
View??

Can you tell I'm new at this?

Hope you can help.

Thanks
A.J.
