RE: Vector of a vector?

Sudha, I'm pretty sure Vector will always be supported.  I see nothing
in any of the documentation suggesting it is deprecated.  Thus, any
application server will always support a Vector.  However, the ArrayList
class is easier to use and might even have some performance benefits;
the only problem is that the ArrayList is not available prior to Java
version 1.2.  Older JDKs will not support it.
