How to add new element to Varargs?

Question

I have a method

public boolean findANDsetText  (String Description, String ... extra ) {

inside I want to call another method and pass it extras but I want to add new element (Description) to extras.

     object_for_text = getObject(find_arguments,extra);

How can I do that in java? What would the code look like?

I tired to accommodate code from this question but couldn't make it work.

Answer 1

Use Arrays.copyOf(...) :

String[] extra2 = Arrays.copyOf(extra, extra.length+1);
extra2[extra.length] = description;

object_for_text = getObject(find_arguments,extra2);
