Link Details

Forget the link above... it points to localhost... suprising that Dzone doesn't detect that. Here is the real link:

this one's fixed now

except the dzone URL is off... java_reflection_tutorial_introduction.html

nice find, but its useless? i would use list.

I would use List too in most cases, when I can. But you can't always make that choice yourself, can you? For instance, when configuring an app via DI, sometimes you have to inject arrays into some classes that you did not write yourself.

Nice post, just a comment: There is a way to access natives array classes using reflection. I wrote a short follow up about it in my blog: http://www.jroller.com/eyallupu/entry/two_side_notes_about_arrays
