Convert a String[] array

[Peter Simon]

Hi,
A method returns a String[]array.
Could someone tell me how can i can get to the elements of this array, (since I don't know how many elements this array contains cannot write a for loop for this)
Can I convert or cast this array into some sort of a collection(Vector or ArrayList f.e.) so that i can use the methods .size() or .iterator()?
thanks,
Peter

this is my code:

public static (Vector?) getUsersInGroup(UserManagement Usermgmt, String groupName ){
        Vector v = (a way to cast here?)Usermgmt.getUsersInGroup(groupName);

The .length member will give you the number of elements in the array. No conversions are necessary.

thanks,
and if wanted to convert because the elements are easyer to return from a collection,
how would I do this?

if you want to convert in to collection then you have populate the value of array to collection element.
Example create a ArrayList and populate each value of the array to ArrayList object and from ArrayList you can get collection.

You can simply use the Arrays.asList(Object[]) method.
