Warning for generic varargs

Question

I have declared the following method:

private void mockInvokeDBHandler(Map... rows) {
    List> allRows         


        

Answer 1

You could lower the burden of using a List instead of varargs by using some builder interface (e.g. like the one I'm using). Using this CollectionBuilder, it would become something like this:

mockInvokeDBHandler(CollectionBuilder.>list().add(map1).add(map2).get());

it's prettier without generic args though:

import static at.molindo.utils.collections.CollectionBuilder.list

List list = list(String.class).add("foo").addAll(set).get();

It's certainly longer as the varargs solution, but anyway pretty handy at times.
