I need to do something like this...
Collection<T> myCollection; ///assume it is initialized and filled
for(Iterator<?> index = myCollection.iterator(); index.hasNext();)
{
Object item = index.next();
myCollection.remove(item);
}
Obviously this throws ConcurrentModificationException...
So I have tried this but doesn't does seem elegant/efficient and throws a Type safety: Unchecked cast from Object to T warning
Object[] list = myCollection.toArray();
for(int index = list.length - 1; index >= 0; index--) {
myCollection.remove((T)list[index]);
}
You can just use iterator.remove()
:
for(Iterator<?> index = myCollection.iterator(); index.hasNext();)
{
Object item = index.next();
index.remove();
}
Beware that this may cause O(n^2)
runtime for some datatypes (eg ArrayList
). In this particular case, it might be more efficient to simply clear the collection after the iteration.
A side-caveat, the type of the original collection matters in this instance as well. For instance, Arrays.asList(new Integer[]{1, 2, 3});
strangely creates an UnmodifiableList
, in which case you would need to instantiate an empty ArrayList perform newList.addAll(Arrays.asList(new Integer[]{1, 2, 3});
.
