Referenceing my mod in another one of my mods

[skip999]

Hello,

I have been working on a JEI Plugin for my mod, and I have run into a small problem. As a back story, I have my items in one mod and blocks in another. For the JEI plugin to work, I need to be able to reference the item library in my block library. I know how to do this in JSON files, but I don't know how to do it for inside the class files themselves. Would I need to create a Maven repository for the one mod and then import it via the gradle, or is there a much simpler method?

 

Thanks!

What. Why?

Does this mean your BlockItems are in your items mod?

No I suppose I should have explained it a tad bit better. Items that are items only are contained in the one mod (armor, ingots,that sort of thing). Then blocks (and their respective block items) are separate mod. I might merge them in the future, but it essentially helps me keep the clutter down since i am working on the block library alot and havn't touched the item library in a while.

create a new RegistryObject with the respective registry name and store it in a static final field.

Is this now preferred to using ObjectHolder?

Or has this approach superceded ObjectHolder?
