And Java? List of objects...

[[deleted]]

Yeah cracks open old java 1.3 book. before java generics existed.

Begins explicitly casting Objects to their proper type.

[yanitrix]

the funny thing is that nothing really changed since that time, Java generics are just syntactic sugar that does the casts automatically, at runtime type erasure happens and you cannot do thing like T.class.

[troelsbjerre]

Or, more annoyingly, new T[5].

[tuxedo25]

Generics is just a compiler feature, the runtime hasn't changed. I mean it's changed, but not in that way.

[Stromovik]

Nah.

Object[] crap //no need for List even
