Create ArrayList from array

Question

I have an array that is initialized like:

Element[] array = {new Element(1), new Element(2), new Element(3)};

I would like to convert this

Answer 1

Another Java8 solution (I may have missed the answer among the large set. If so, my apologies). This creates an ArrayList (as opposed to a List) i.e. one can delete elements

package package org.something.util;

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.stream.Collectors;

public class Junk {

    static  ArrayList  arrToArrayList(T[] arr){
        return Arrays.asList(arr)
            .stream()
            .collect(Collectors.toCollection(ArrayList::new));
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String[] sArr = new String[]{"Hello", "cruel", "world"};
        List ret = arrToArrayList(sArr);
        // Verify one can remove an item and print list to verify so
        ret.remove(1);
        ret.stream()
            .forEach(System.out::println);
    }
}

Output is...
Hello
world
