Just don't use them. With generics there is little use for arrays of reference types. Just use a List.

If you just want to clear the compiler warning, put the following
annotation on the method that does the add..

@SuppressWarnings({"unchecked"})

That is a measure of last resort. Not something to be thrown around just to make the compiler shut up. If the compiler is making a noise, there is probably a good reason.
