Convert a generic list to an array

So I am trying to convert the contents of my arraylist into an array. However I keep getting the error Type mismatch: cannot convert from Object[] to String or the error Type mismatch: cannot convert from String[] to String

any ideas how to solve this, I'm drawing up blanks. Thanks

Answer 1

Here is one way:

String[] listArr= new String[yourList.size()];
        Iterator<String> listIter = yourList.iterator();
        while (listIter .hasNext()) {
            listArr[count] = listIter .next();

        }

Note: There may be syntax errors, I just typed code here.

Answer 2

Try this:

String[] array = arrayList.toArray(new String[0]);

That is, assuming that the ArrayList was declared with type ArrayList<String>. Replace with the appropriate types if necessary.

Answer 3

Another way:

String[] result = new String[arrayList.size()];
arrayList.ToArray( result );
