I have two ArrayList
objects with three integers each. I want to find a way to return the common elements of the two lists. Has anybody an idea how I can achieve this?
listA.retainAll(listB);
// listA now contains only the elements which are also contained in listB.
If you want to avoid that changes are being affected in listA
, then you need to create a new one.
List<Integer> common = new ArrayList<Integer>(listA);
common.retainAll(listB);
// common now contains only the elements which are contained in listA and listB.
