How created method with signature as List
- by London
Hi all, I'm very new to Java programming language so this is probably dumb question but I have to ask it because I can't figure it out on my own. Here is the deal.
I want to create method which extracts certain object type from a list. So the method should receive List as argument, meaning list should contain either Object1 or Object2. I've tried like this :
public Object1 extractObject(List<?>){
//some pseudo-code
... loop trough list and check if list item is instance of object one return that instance
}
The problem with declaring method with List<?> as method argument is that I receive compilation error from eclipse Syntax error on token ">", VariableDeclaratorId expected after this token.
How do I set the method signature properly to accept object types either Object1 or Object2 ? Thank you
