I may have missed it -- and I've never had a requirement for it -- but it seems you can't create collections that hold non-uniform types, in Java 5.0. I guess I could do something like: List<Object> l = new ArrayList<Object>(); l.add("Hello"); l.add(1); // Does autoboxing apply here? Would that be compilable (and runnable)? Cheers, Avi.

  Yes, it would compile and run.
