Java only has fixed size arrays.

There is a very powerfull Collections framework that offers lots of handy
datastructures though:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/collections/index.html

Java lets you allocate arrays of any size determined at runtime, but
they are fixed.  To grow you must allocate a new array and copy, like
C.  Java also has the Vector collection that is like an array that
grows automatically as needed.  There are many other Collections that
come built-in.  In Java 1.5 Vectors can contain specific object types.
Before that, the contents are considered generic objects, and it up to
you when you fish them out to manually cast them back to what they
really are.
