The [answer](http://stackoverflow.com/a/2927427/484293) is a combination of covariant arrays and type erasure in java. – blubb Apr 06 '13 at 21:10

If you're trying to create an array of x, y and z point's there's a better solution `ArrayList
` with `class Point3D { public int x,y,z; }` – Philip Whitehouse Apr 06 '13 at 21:13
