Varargs to ArrayList problem in Java

Question

I don\'t understand why the following does not work:

public void doSomething(int... args){
  List broken = new ArrayList(Arrays         


        

Answer 1

You can solve this using Guava:

List broken = new ArrayList<>(Ints.asList(args))

Or with streams:

List broken = Arrays
    .stream(array)
    .boxed()
    .collect(Collectors.toCollection(ArrayList::new));
