you access them if need be:

class tester extends jframe {     private jbutton button;    private jlabel label;    //..some more     public tester() {         function(); // call function    }     public void function() {       runnable r = new runnable() {          @override          public void run() {             system.out.println("button's text is: " + button.gettext());          }       };       new thread(r).start();    } }
