Convert a list of array into an array of array

Question

I have a list like this:

List<MyObject[]> list= new LinkedList<MyObject[]>();

and on Object like this:

MyObject[][] myMatrix;

How can I assign the "list" to "myMatrix"?

I don't want to loop over the list and assign element by element to MyMatrix, but I want to assign it directly (with the oppurtune modifications) if possible. Thanks

You could use toArray(T[]).

import java.util.*;
public class Test{
    public static void main(String[] a){ 
        List<String[]> list=new ArrayList<String[]>();
        String[][] matrix=new String[list.size()][];
        matrix=list.toArray(matrix);
    }   
}
