I'm looking for a static method in the Java core libraries or some other commonly used dependency — preferably one of Apache — that does the following:
public static <T> Collection<T> wrap(final T object){
final Collection<T> collection = new ArrayList<T>();
collection.add(object);
return collection;
}
Do you know where such a method already exists? Since I guess the problem is common, I don't want to duplicate it's solution.
