I assume he's referring to this:
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/ArrayAdapter.html

First link on Google and Bing.

That said, it really doesn't matter what the type of the object is. 
It's still just going to be a normal object reference.  And accessing 
object references that exist in one class from another class is always 
done the same way: either provide a method or field in the owning class 
that will return it, or pass/assign the value of the reference to a 
method/field in the accessing class.

Basically, it's one of the first things someone ought to learn when 
learning how to program in an OOP language.  Classes that can't get 
values from the instance of one class to the instance of another usually 
aren't that useful.
