Synchronized ArrayList

[java4amanda]

Hi All,

Can anyone kindly tell me how to create a synchronized arraylist? Below mentioned is a line of code that i bumped into some site while searching about how to synchronize an array list'

List<String> syncList = Collections.synchronizedList(new ArrayList<String>());.

But when i tried using that code i faced compile time error >>> incompatible types.

I tried the below code on my own and kindly tell me will it work?

import java.util.*;

class AList

{

public static void main(String[] agrs)

{

ArrayList <String> al = new ArrayList<String>();


al.add("john");

al.add("max");



for(String s : al)

{

Collections.synchronizedList(s);

System.out.println(s);


}


}

}

Now is the above code valid

The return value of the Collections.synchronizedList( ... ) method is a synchronized list, but you're not using it at all.

kind regards,
