Converting String array to java.util.List
List<String> strings = Arrays.asList(new String[]{"one", "two", "three"});This is a list view of the array, the list is partly unmodifiable, you can't add or delete elements. But the time complexity is O(1).
If you want a modifiable a List:
List<String> strings = new ArrayList<String>(Arrays.asList(new String[]{"one", "two", "three"}));This will copy all elements from the source array into a new list (complexity: O(n))
Use the static List list = Arrays.asList(stringArray) or you could just iterate over the array and add the strings to the list.
import java.util.Collections;List myList = new ArrayList();String[] myArray = new String[] {"Java", "Util", "List"};Collections.addAll(myList, myArray);
