im not sure if this question is a beginner or intermediate, but here it is:
my friend told me that with the new update of
java 5.0 update7 you can make ArrayLists for a specific object, which i though would save me god knows how much trouble with casting objects back to their true state, but when it came to adding things to these arraylists, this is were my problem starts.
when i try to add something(of the same type the arraylist stores) using the .add(*) method, i get a compilation error telling me "<identifier> expected". what is my problem? i suppose its because i dont know anything about the update except that you can make an ArrayList of a specific type...
