Thanks for the info, one query though ...Ummm why didn't it just use: elementData = c.toArray(new Object[c.size()]);
Because "c" might be a concurrent collection, so you don't want to independently call c.size(). Notice that AbstractCollection correctly implements toArray() even for such collections but cannot do so for toArray(T[] a) because it must interpret a.length as the required size. -Doug
