Thanks. Does anyone know anywhere else? I have heard of Vouchers4Exam but I don't know if they are trustworthy.

Does anyone know where I can get genuine vouchers to give the Java SE 7 OCA Certification exam?

Has anyone used ePractize Lab's Java SE 7 OCA Certification Training Lab - Study Guide and Mock Exam Questions Simulator (Software Book)?

I'm asking because I want to give the OCA exam and not sure if K&B Java 6 book and enthuware's mock exams would be sufficient.
I have tried that but the compiler complains they are incompatible types

the error is as follows :
warning [unchecked] unchecked call to add(E) as a member of the raw type java.util.Vector
Any suggestions

hi,
is it possible to use generic types for a vector that stores different objects e.g. other vectors and Color?

What does it mean when you run your program and although it runs you have the following message on the console:
Note: *.java uses unchecked or unsafe operations.
Note: Recompile with -Xlint:unchecked for details.

How can one get rid of it.

Thanks a lot. Here are the details:-

In the PaintButton class i have;
_________________________________________________________________________
private class MyPaintButtonListener implements ActionListener

if(ae.getSource() == square)
{
74:myPaintCanvas.setDrawMode(myPaintCanvas.mySquare);

and this is a summary of what the MyPaintCanvasClass looks like:
