Is there an accepted best practice in Java for deleting a list element while iterating over the list?

Question

I\'m finding conflicting advice over the best way to avoid a ConcurrentModificationException while doing this:

    List Apples = appleC         


        

Answer 1

Yes, use an Iterator. Then you could use its remove method.

  for (Iterator appleIterator = Apples.iterator(); appleIterator.hasNext();) {
     Apple apple = appleIterator.next();
     if (apple.isTart()) {
        appleIterator.remove();
     }
  }
}
