I get these weird characters when I try to print out a vector element!

Question

I\'m using Netbeans. When I run the program below, I get this as output [I@de6ced! How come?

import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.Vector;

Answer 1

Integer[] a = new Integer[1];
a[0] = new Integer(5);
List list = Arrays.asList(a);
System.out.println(list.get(0));

The above works as you would expect.

So it looks like the "int" array is treated like an Object and not an array of Integers. In other words auto boxing doesn't seem to be applied to it?
