toArray() of ArrayList<String>

843793Jul 18 2004 — edited Jul 18 2004

   ArrayList<String> relNames;

   public String[] getRelNames()
   {
      if (database == null)
         throw new Error("No database is connected.");
     else
        return relNames.toArray();
   }

the code above wont compile because relNames.toArray(); returns Object[], but i ve specified in the declaration that ArrayList<String> relNames; dont quite understand why?
