Define custom array type in Java [duplicate]

Question

This question already has answers here:

Is there a Java equivalent or methodology for the typedef keyword in C++? (12 answers)

Closed 9 years ago.

Here are type definitions from Delphi:

type
  MD5Count = array [0 .. 1] of DWORD;
  MD5State = array [0 .. 3] of DWORD;

could the same typedefs be done in Java?

For reference: The example above defines two custom data types. One of them is a two-elements array of Int32, other is a four-elements array of Int32.

Answer 1

There are no typedefs in java. Arrays are either of one of the primitive types, or some class that will just compile away to object references.
