12/03/2018, 2:24 AM@Matej Kormuth IntArray is considered equivalent with Java’s Int[] or int32_t[] in cpp, it will not auto increase size.
While ArrayList is generic which is implemented with Type-Erasure, all Element type is treated as Any at runtime, so primitive in ArrayList(and other collections) must do auto box for putting into, which differs from what C++ template does.
