Hello All,
I am having problem using List<String> in my JSP page. Below is my JSP code.
<%@ page import="java.util.*, java.io.*"%>
<html>
<body>
<h1 align="center">Beer Recommendations JSP</h1>
<p>
<%
List<String> beerBrands = (List<String>)request.getAttribute("styles");
Iterator<String> it = beerBrands.iterator();
while(it.hasNext()){
out.print("<br>try: " + it.next());
}
%>
</body>
</html>
When I compile the above JSP code in Eclipse 3.4 (using JBoss 4.2 as my Application Server), I get the following Warning.
Type safety: Unchecked cast from Enumeration to Enumeration<String>
If I add the "@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")" to the code, Eclipse does not give any Error during compilation. But, at runtime, I get the following Error.
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to compile class for JSP:
An error occurred at line: 10 in the jsp file: /BeerAdvice.jsp

11: List<String> beerBrands = (List<String>)request.getAttribute("styles");
12: Iterator<String> it = beerBrands.iterator();
13: while(it.hasNext()){

The type List is not generic; it cannot be parameterized with arguments <String>

Any help is very much appreciated.
Thank you for your help.
