java object toarray,为什么List.toArray（）返回Object的数组？

See this code example :

List list = new ArrayList();

list.add("hello");

list.add("world");

Object [] array = list.toArray();

Why does the method toArray() return an array of Object ? Other List methods such as get() , remove() are able to return the type of objects in the list.

解决方案

Because array has been in Java since the beginning, while generics

were only introduced in Java 5. And the List.toArray() method was

introduced in Java 1.2, before generics existed, so it was

specified to return Object[].

u can use toArray(T[] a) just take a look Collection.toArray(T[] a)
