A java list of characters can be returned from a Scala program by writing a user defined method of Java in Scala. Here, we don’t even need to import any Scala’s JavaConversions object in order to make this conversions work.
Now, lets see some examples.
Example:1#
// Scala program to print Java List // of characters in Scala // Creating object object GfG
{ // Main method
def main(args : Array[String])
{
// Creating a java method in Scala
def result = {
// Creating a java list of characters
val list = new java.util.ArrayList[Char]()
// Adding string elements in the List
list.add( 'g' )
list.add( 'f' )
list.add( 'g' )
// Displays output
println(list)
}
// Assigning result method to list
val list = result
}
} |
[g, f, g]
Therefore, a list of characters is returned from a Java method. Here, we don’t need to import any object of Scala. In the above program a Java method is written in Scala program. Where, this method adds the characters elements of the list to the stated list one after another and then prints the results.
Example:2#
// Scala program to print Java List // of characters in Scala // Creating object object GfG
{ // Main method
def main(args : Array[String])
{
// Creating a java method in Scala
def result = {
// Creating a java list of characters
val list = new java.util.ArrayList[Char]()
// Adding string elements in the List
list.add( 'l' )
list.add( 'm' )
list.add( 'n' )
// Displays output
println(list)
}
// Assigning result method to list
val list = result
}
} |
[l, m, n]
It is same as above example but here one more element is added in the stated list and here proper order of the elements is not required.
