remove() on List created by Arrays.asList() throws UnsupportedOperationException

by

Arrays.asList returns a List wrapper around an array. This wrapper has a fixed size and is directly backed by the array, and as such calls to set will modify the array, and any other method that modifies the list will throw an UnsupportedOperationException.

To fix this, you have to create a new modifiable list by copying the wrapper list’s contents. This is easy to do by using the ArrayList constructor that takes a Collection:

Collection c = new ArrayList(Arrays.asList(la));
