I am encountering warnings of unchecked cast. I'm not sure how to resolve the warnings.
The compiler error seems to pick on list = (E[]) new IntKeyed [size];
Which is the code we are suppose to used letter for letter.
We are attempting to use Generics hence the "E".
So I figure I must have goofed somewhere in this code. When I looked up the error, it seemed to deal with ArrayLists
, but I'm not using an ArrayList
to my knowledge.
Maybe I should be ArrayLists
? Would changing that fix the warnings? I also have an issue with incomplete exception handling in my code. But I think that is isolated from the Array issue.
Any errors you can find will help point me in the right direction. Thanks.
public abstract class MyArrayList<E> implements IntKeyed
{
private final int DEFCAP = 50;
private int origCap;
private int numElements;
private E[] list;
public MyArrayList()
{
origCap = DEFCAP;
list = (E[]) new IntKeyed [origCap]; *******Error Here
}
public MyArrayList( int size ) throws Exception
{
size = DEFCAP;
if( size > 0 )
{
list = (E[]) new IntKeyed [size]; *******Error Here
origCap = size;
}
else
{
throw new ArrayStoreException();
System.out.println("List size is invalid");
}
list = (E[]) new IntKeyed [size]; *******Error Here
}
private void enlarge ()
{
E[] larger = (E[]) new IntKeyed [list.length + origCap]; *******Error Here
for( int i = 0; i < list.length; i++)
{
larger[i] = list[i];
}
list = larger;
}
When compiling with javac -Xlint:unchecked MyArrayList.java
I get:

warnings is not a problem, problem is unreachable statement after throwing exception.
it should be this way:
System.out.println("List size is invalid");
throw new ArrayStoreException();
If your believe that your casts should work - add @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
on method or statement level(smaller scope is better). Compiler will not emit any messages, but you will still get exception in runtime if you casts are wrong.
Warning at list = (E[]) new IntKeyed [origCap];
practically means that generic E
is being hardcoded as IntKeyed
so whatever you pass for E
, your list
will always remain of type IntKeyed
.
In your case, generic use doesn't seem to be suited as you are already implementing specific interface for this purpose.
