Extend generic List

Question

I am a C# programmer and have agreed to help a fried doing Java homework.

In one example I want to create a class that extends a generic List. In C# this looks like

public class MyListClass : List<MyCustomType>

I have tried

public class MyListClass extends List<MyCustomType>

and get the error "no interface expected here". Well, I am not trying to use an interface... Any hints?

Answer 1

java.util.List is a interface. You need to implement it not extend it.

public class MyListClass implements List<MyCustomType>{
}
