Pulling Objects out of a Vector

Question

Hi, all:
I am trying to pull Objects out of this vector, and the given method only wants to let me get integers. How do I go about getting Objects out of a vector like this one? The problem comes in with the last line, where the "get" method complains that it wants an integer. The API says the same; I just can't find a method that lets me pull an Object out of a vector instead of an integer. Any ideas?
          neighborList = new Vector();
          soldierNeighbors = new Vector();
          neighborList = world.getMooreNeighbors(x, y, false);
          for (int i = 0; i < neighborList.size(); i++){
          Soldier soldier = neighborList.get (soldier);

Answer 1

Soldier soldier = neighborList.get (soldier);You'll want to use "i" as your index, not "soldier", since you presumably want to get the soldier reference at element 'i'. Note that since you're not using generics, the get() method returns an Object reference. You'll need to cast it to Soldier. Example:
Soldier soldier = (Soldier) neighborList.get(i);Read more here: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/collections/
