I compiled and ran the following under JDK 1.4.1:

InnerTest.java
--------------------------------8<-----------------------------------
public class InnerTest
{
private int x = 10;

   public class Inner
   {
   public void printX()
   {
      System.out.println(x);
   }
   }

   public Inner createInner()
   {
      return new Inner();
   }
}
--------------------------------8<-----------------------------------

Main.java
--------------------------------8<-----------------------------------
public class Main
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
   InnerTest aInnerTest = new InnerTest();
   InnerTest.Inner aInner = aInnerTest.createInner();
   aInner.printX();
}
}
--------------------------------8<-----------------------------------
