getting the value of string array out of object array

[jazy smith]

Hi all,

I have piece of code as mentioned below. I want to parse each string array value associated with each object array. (e.g. for obj[0], I need the first string value as "a" and second string value as "ap" ) How would I get them ?

Any idea ?

List list = new ArrayList();
		
		list.add(new String[]{"a","ap"});
		list.add(new String[]{"b","ba"});
		list.add(new String[]{"c","ca"});
		list.add(new String[]{"d","do"});
		
		Object[] obj = list.toArray();

Just cast an entry of that object array:

String[] first = (String[]) obj[0];

Or use generics:

List<String[]> list = new ArrayList<String[]>();
list.add(new String[]{"a","ap"});
list.add(new String[]{"b","ba"});
list.add(new String[]{"c","ca"});
list.add(new String[]{"d","do"});

String[] obj = list.toArray(new String[list.size()][]);
