I'm writing some code to do some SSH jobs on a remote machine and one of the methods I'm (forced of) using returns a Vector type. I've learned about them several years ago but never had the chance of actually using them until now.What I do know about them is They are not thread safeThey are very old and are deprecated (Netbeans warns me it's an Obsolete Collection)Not being thread-safe seems not that of a big of a deal if you're being careful about it. but I don't think it's enough to dismiss them. Am I missing something?EDIT:It seems I've touched a serious issue here with Vectors being obsolete(deprecated may not be the right word), what I want to know is why are vectors being so avoided in the first place
Collections: Why are Vectors not used anymore but are still around?
