Strange situation - below is the code:
ArrayList<String[]> listArr = new ArrayList<>();
Object[] obj = new Object[]{"str", listArr};
String str = (String) obj[0];//OK
ArrayList<String[]> list = (ArrayList<String[]>) obj[1];//warning: [unchecked] unchecked cast
When project is built (with compiler option -Xlint:unchecked
in project properties), I get one warning:
warning: [unchecked] unchecked cast
ArrayList list = (ArrayList) obj[1];
required: ArrayList
found: Object
But casting String in the same way is OK. What is the problem here?
This is because the compiler can not verify the internal types at the list level, so you need to first verify for list. And the internal types individually.
Instead of ArrayList<String[]> list = (ArrayList<String[]>) obj[1];
It should be ArrayList<?> list = (ArrayList<?>) obj[1];
This is because if you try to cast Integer to String you will get ClassCastException at runtime. But there will be no ClassCastException here:
ArrayList<Integer[]> listArr = new ArrayList<>();
ArrayList<String[]> list = (ArrayList<String[]>) obj[1];
The compiler complains
ArrayList<String[]> list = (ArrayList<String[]>) obj[1]
because a cast is a runtime check. So at runtime your ArrayList<String[]>
could be a ArrayList<Whatever[]>
, because the type of obj is unknown.
