Attributes

Remarks

Returns a dynamically typesafe view of the specified list. Any attempt to insert an element of the wrong type will result in an immediate ClassCastException. Assuming a list contains no incorrectly typed elements prior to the time a dynamically typesafe view is generated, and that all subsequent access to the list takes place through the view, it is guaranteed that the list cannot contain an incorrectly typed element.

A discussion of the use of dynamically typesafe views may be found in the documentation for the #checkedCollection checkedCollection method.

The returned list will be serializable if the specified list is serializable.

Since null is considered to be a value of any reference type, the returned list permits insertion of null elements whenever the backing list does.
