Java: byte[] to Byte[]

Question

Java makes me sad since it needs wrapper classes for ArrayLists. How would I go about adding a byte[] to a ArrayList<Byte[]>?

Answer 1

LOL thought I had to wrap everything. ArrayList<byte[]> works. Thanks Yishai.

Answer 2

You have to wrap any primitives to use them in a context that requires an object. But a byte[] is not a primitive. It's an array of bytes, and an array is an object.

Just to clarify: Do you really want an ArrayList of arrays of bytes, i.e. effectively a two-dimensional array? Or do you really simply want an ArrayList of bytes? In that case, you would have to wrap the bytes in Bytes to put them in the ArrayList.
