I suppose that you're using java prior version 1.5. Autoboxing was introduced in java 1.5. And your code compiles fine on java 1.5+.

Compile as source 1.4:

javac -source 1.4 A.java


A.java:7: error: no suitable method found for add(int)
    list.add(90);
        ^
    method ArrayList.add(int,Object) is not applicable
      (actual and formal argument lists differ in length)
    method ArrayList.add(Object) is not applicable
      (actual argument int cannot be converted to Object by method invocation conversion)
A.java:8: error: no suitable method found for add(double)
    list.add(9.9);
        ^
    method ArrayList.add(int,Object) is not applicable
      (actual and formal argument lists differ in length)
    method ArrayList.add(Object) is not applicable
      (actual argument double cannot be converted to Object by method invocation conversion)
A.java:10: error: no suitable method found for add(boolean)
    list.add(true);
        ^
    method ArrayList.add(int,Object) is not applicable
      (actual and formal argument lists differ in length)
    method ArrayList.add(Object) is not applicable
      (actual argument boolean cannot be converted to Object by method invocation conversion)
3 errors

With 1.5 (or later):

javac -source 1.5 A.java

warning: [options] bootstrap class path not set in conjunction with -source 1.5
Note: A.java uses unchecked or unsafe operations.
Note: Recompile with -Xlint:unchecked for details.
1 warning

I suggest you to update your java or box all primitives to objects manually, as @SoulDZIN suggested.
