How to convert ArrayList String to String in Java

Question

Can anybody suggest a way in which I can convert an ArrayList<String> to a String[] in Java? Please help!!

Answer 1

You can try using this:

List<String> list = ..; 

//Add items to your list

list.add(“ABC”);

list.add(“XYZ”);

String[] arrayName = list.toArray(new String[0]);

toArray() method will return an array containing all of the elements in the list in a proper sequence.

Answer 2

Try this: 

String[] strArray = arrayList.toArray(new String[arrayList.size()]);
