Create ArrayList from array

Question

I have an array that is initialized like:

Element[] array = {new Element(1), new Element(2), new Element(3)};

I would like to convert this

Answer 1

Another update, almost ending year 2014, you can do it with Java 8 too:

ArrayList arrayList = Stream.of(myArray).collect(Collectors.toCollection(ArrayList::new));

A few characters would be saved, if this could be just a List

List list = Stream.of(myArray).collect(Collectors.toList());
