Convert Set to List without creating new List

Question

I am using this code to convert a Set to a List:

Map> mainMap = new HashMap<>();

for (int i         


        

Answer 1

I found this working fine and useful to create a List from a Set.

ArrayList < String > L1 = new ArrayList < String > ();
L1.addAll(ActualMap.keySet());
for (String x: L1) {
    System.out.println(x.toString());
}

Answer 2

You could use this one line change: Arrays.asList(set.toArray(new Object[set.size()]))

Map<String, List> mainMap = new HashMap<String, List>();

for(int i=0; i<something.size(); i++){
  Set set = getSet(...); 
  mainMap.put(differentKeyName, Arrays.asList(set.toArray(new Object[set.size()])));
}  

Answer 3

Map<String, List> mainMap = new HashMap<String, List>();

for(int i=0; i<something.size(); i++){
  Set set = getSet(...); //return different result each time
  mainMap.put(differentKeyName, new ArrayList(set));
}
