Java: More on Lists – double brace initialisation

Normal initialisation

List<String> myList = new ArrayList<String>();
myList.add("ItemOne");
myList.add("ItemTwo);

Using Arrays.asList(…)

List<String> myList = Arrays.asList("ItemOne", "ItemTwo");

Double brace initialisation

List<String> myList = new ArrayList<String>() {
{ add("ItemOne"); add("ItemTwo"); }
};
