java - Add elements in ArrayList in more readable way -

i have below code snippet add elements in arraylist

list <integer> mylist = new  arraylist(); mylist.add(1); mylist.add(2); mylist.add(3); mylist.add(4);

i looking more readable , elegant way add elements in arraylist, below. know below not allowed there other readable/elegant way?

mylist.add(1).add(2).add(3).add(4)

update:- on java 1.6

when know elements prior instantiating:

list<integer> mylist = new arraylist<>(arrays.aslist(1, 2, 3, 4));

or if want add them existing list:

list<integer> mylist = new arraylist<>(); // stuff mylist.addall(arrays.aslist(1, 2, 3, 4));

to make more readable, can

import static java.util.arrays.aslist;

and use

list<integer> mylist = new arraylist<>(aslist(1, 2, 3, 4));

list<integer> mylist = new arraylist<>(); // stuff mylist.addall(aslist(1, 2, 3, 4));

in case know never ever want add more elements list, can write

list<integer> mylist = arrays.aslist(1, 2, 3, 4);

or static import:

list<integer> mylist = aslist(1, 2, 3, 4);
