Answer 1

You'd need to update the setListData method to take the new parameter type (and any other code that was expecting an Object[], including methods, possible things that iterate over the array, etc.) Just because something is deprecated doesn't mean it's removed, though.

What to do depends on your immediate goal: is it to learn the material, or to learn the material and update all the source to compile without warnings.
