Java5: Can't find a way to get rid of warnings about generic types

Question

Hi all,
i have this method:
    public static void insert(List list, int index, Object obj) {
        list.add(obj);
        int j = list.size() - 1;
        for (; j > index; j--) {
            list.set(j - 1, list.get(j));
        list.set(index, obj);
    }I get 3 warnings. All about:
Type safety: The method add(Object) belongs to the raw type List. References to generic type List<E> should be parameterized
I can't find a way to rewrite this method (Java5), that i get no warnings compiling it and calling it with:
List<AnyClass> list = new ArrayList<AnyClass>();
list.add(new AnyClass());
AnyClass ac = new AnyClass();
insert(list, 0, ac);May be you know another way to insert an element to a List?
Thanks

Never tried it and do not have 5.0 installed to test
it, but what if you define the ArrayList as follows?
List<Object> list = new ArrayList<Object>();
That should get rid of the warnings.
