I am trying to implement something on the level of a linked list of
indeterminate length in java. From reading the docs and hearing a few
talks, it seems that the Array is the data structure for this.
But doesn't the array need a size at time of creation?
Is there a way to "grow" an array (sort of a realloc)?
I want to go along collecting Strings and adding them to a list of some
kind: I won't know how many elements will be in the list till I'm done
collecting.
Once I figure this out, I'll be passing the contents of this list back
from a native method that does a database lookup to retrieve the
data, then turn it into Strings: java will then do the
display stuff.
