What is the maximum of number of arguments for varargs in java?

Question

What is the maximum of number of arguments which can be used by a vararg in java ? I believe there should be some limit and it is not infinite.

Answer 1

A method (including the static class initializer) can have at most 64k. If the arguments are such that they can be pushed with a single bytecode that is 1 byte long each, you can have something about 64000 arguments on a call.
