Question

I have an ArrayList that is getting objects that contain user information from a file

once the load is complete, I need the name property from each object to be loaded into a JComboBox, so that the user can choose the username to continue.

this conversion from an ArrayList<object> user --> String[] strName is where I’m having trouble

any help would be greately appreciated!

Answer 1

String[] values = list.toArray(new String[list.size()]);

You could just as easily loop through the ArrayList and use the DefaultComboBoxModel's addElement method
