This comes up in Java 5 and later if you're using collections without type specifiers (e.g.,
Arraylist()
instead ofArrayList<String>()
). It means that the compiler can't check that you're using the collection in a type-safe way, using generics.To get rid of the warning, just be specific about what type of objects you're storing in the collection. So, instead of
use
In Java 7 you can shorten generic instantiation by using Type Inference.
