scala seq java,将Java List转换为Scala Seq

I need to implement a method that return a "Seq", in Java

But I encounter an error, I don't know how to solve it.

java.util.ArrayList cannot be cast to scala.collection.Seq

Here is my code so far

@Override

public Seq columnNames() {

List a = new ArrayList();

a.add("john");

a.add("mary");

Seq b = (scala.collection.Seq) a;

return b;

}

scala.collection.JavaConverters. doesn't seem to offer the possibility to convert as a Seq.

Thank you

解决方案

JavaConverters is what I needed to solve this.

import scala.collection.JavaConverters;

public Seq convertListToSeq(List inputList) {

return JavaConverters.asScalaIteratorConverter(inputList.iterator()).asScala().toSeq();

}
