[java] Convert String array to ArrayList

I want to convert String array to ArrayList. For example String array is like:

String[] words = new String[]{"ace","boom","crew","dog","eon"};

How to convert this String array to ArrayList?

new ArrayList( Arrays.asList( new String[]{"abc", "def"} ) );

Using Collections#addAll()

String[] words = {"ace","boom","crew","dog","eon"};
List<String> arrayList = new ArrayList<>(); 
Collections.addAll(arrayList, words); 

String[] words= new String[]{"ace","boom","crew","dog","eon"};
List<String> wordList = Arrays.asList(words);

in most cases the List<String> should be enough. No need to create an ArrayList

import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.List;

...

String[] words={"ace","boom","crew","dog","eon"};
List<String> l = Arrays.<String>asList(words);

// if List<String> isnt specific enough:
ArrayList<String> al = new ArrayList<String>(l);
