Array item value copy.

[Bell]

Is there a way to copy an array items' value (like clone) to another array?
Currently the array.clone() and System.arraycopy() are only copy the iten
reference.

Those methods do copy the values. It's just that the values happen to be
references. There is no built in way to make a deep copy of an array. You have
to do it yourself.

Deprecated? I've never seen an FAQ posted on here and the group doens't
seem to be moderated, so how the tar can it be "deprecated?"

There's a discussion of it here:
http://www.talkroot.com/archivee/ind...precated?.html

A bit light on detail though, but regardless of the history, this group is not
carried by all news servers, which means not everybody sees it. As for the FAQ,
how long have you been visiting comp.lang.java? Here's some:

You might be noticing that there have been no FAQs *recently*. That's because
this group was replaced by the many other comp.lang.java.* groups
