Cast element in Java For Each statement
- by Carl Summers
Is it possible (or even advisable) to cast the element retrieved from a for each statement in the statement itself? I do know that each element in list will be of type .
I.E.:
List<BaseType> list = DAO.getList();
for(<SubType> element : list){
// Cannot convert from element type <BaseType> to <SubType>
...
}
rather than:
List <BaseType> list = DAO.getList();
for(<BaseType> el : list){
<SubType> element = (<SubType>)el;
...
}
