The full picture is:
1) The main thread creates the String List, and doesn't touch it
any more.
2) The other thread is activated and it is the only one which

the list.
I would expect that whatever activity occurs as an effect of
appending strings (such as reallocating the array) would occur in the
context of the thread performing the action, that all pertinent
information is stored in fields of the object itself, and that the
main thread is never involved. Am I wrong on this aspect?
No, you are right. If it is designed as described above, then it should
work.

But that mean he have only one thread worked at same time.
2 threads:
The main thread takes care of the GUI (keeps the application responsive),
while the second thread collects data, and notifies the main thread when
it is done. The main thread then updates the GUI with the available data.
A simple scheme. I often do it like this.
Michael.
