Copy Elements of One Java Vector to Another Java Vector Example

/*
  Copy Elements of One Java Vector to Another Java Vector Example
  This java example shows how to copy all elements of one Java Vector object to
  another Java Vector object using copy method of Collections class.

    v1.add("1");
    v1.add("2");
    v1.add("3");
 
    //create another Vector object

    /*
      To copy elements of one Java Vector to another use,
      static void copy(List dstList, List sourceList) method of Collections class.
     
      This method copies all elements of source list to destination list. After copy
      index of the elements in both source and destination lists would be identical.
     
      The destination list must be long enough to hold all copied elements. If it is
      longer than that, the rest of the destination list's elments would remain
      unaffected.

    System.out.println("Before copy, Second Vector Contains : " + v2);
 
    //copy all elements of Vector to another Vector using copy 
    //method of Collections class
    Collections.copy(v2,v1);
 
    /*
      Please note that, If destination Vector object is not long enough 
      to hold all elements of source Vector, 
      it throws IndexOutOfBoundsException.

/*
Output would be
Before copy, Second Vector Contains : [One, Two, Three, Four, Five]
After copy, Second Vector Contains : [1, 2, 3, Four, Five]
