Is there a reason why the diamond syntax can't be used with an array ?

List<?>[] list = new List<>[12]; It can in Java 7. That's the bug that we just discussed in regard to the java.util.concurrent code cleanup where I suggested to use: HashEntry<K,V>[] newTable = new HashEntry<>[1]; to avoid the explicit cast. ;-) David

I've put my desktop in a Faraday cage and cut the internet link to be sure there will be no auto-update even over the air :)
