Your problems are on Java syntax, not ImageJ ;)---read:

I your case, what you're trying is to use an instance method in a static
way.  In Java, an object is not instantiated just by declaring it, you
have to use new.  So either:

test_1.java:

public class test_1 implements PlugIn {

 public void run(String arg) { shared_method(); }

 static public void shared_method() { IJ.showMessage("test_1","Hello world!"); }
}

or leaving test_1 as you had it before:

test_2.java:

public class test_2 implements PlugIn {

 public void run(String arg) {
     test_1 temp = new test_1();
     temp.shared_method();
   }

}

The previous test_1/test_2 combination shouldn't have been compilable.

Best,
