Is it possible to solve the "A generic array of T is created for a varargs parameter" compiler warning?
generics, java
Solution
In Java 6, other than adding `@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")`, I don't think so.
This bug report has more information but it boils down to the compiler not liking arrays of generic types.
Problem
This is a simplified version of the code in question, one generic class uses another class with generic type parameters and needs to pass one of the generic types to a method with varargs parameters: ``` class Assembler<X, Y> { void assemble(X container, Y... args) { ... } } class Component<T> { void useAssembler(T something) { Assembler<String, T> assembler = new Assembler<String, T>(); //generates warning: // Type safety : A generic array of T is // created for a varargs parameter assembler.assemble("hello", something); } ``` } Is there any correct way to pass along the generic parameter to a varargs method without encountering this warning? Of course something like ``` assembler.assemble("hello", new T[] { something }); ``` does not work since you cannot create generic arrays.
