This week's book giveaway is in the Agile and other Processes forum. We're giving away four copies of The Mikado Method and have Ola Ellnestam and Daniel Brolund on-line! See this thread for details.
Hello , Could you please tell me how to do this. I want to have an array which is String in type which the size gets increased dynamically. Say if there are 10 items the array size is 10 . If there is only 1 item the array size is one. Like that initially with out specifying the size. Thanks

Probably the easiest way to do this is to use a java.util.List instead of an array. If you need to use an array, you just call .toArray() on the list to express it as an array. (Or .toArray(new SomeClass[0]) to return an array that can be cast to a SomeClass[] )

You cannot do it with a Java built-in array (the [] kind). An approximation would be an ArrayList found in the java.util package. You could use ArrayList's trimToSize() method when you remove things from the end of the ArrayList.
