Class java.util.Vector: Used as list
  • Vector can be seen as list datastructure or as sizable array.
  • List - data structure for storing any kind of different objects: 
    Vector mylist = new Vector();
String test = "test";
mylist.addElement( new String("Name") );
mylist.addElement( test );
mylist.addElement( new AnyObject() );
mylist.addElement( new AnyOtherObject() );
    It can easily be checked if a certain element is contained or elments can be inserted and removed. 
    mylist.insertElementAt( new YetAnotherObject(), 2);
if (mylist.contains(test))
	mylist.removeElement(test);
