How to not use casting to invoke the methods of a List of objects

Show all headers | View raw

Below uses a List of objects of class Route. Class Route has public member variables (such as locationid) and public methods (such as get_locationid()). The below code is a first attempt at a way to obtain the value of locationid using casting. Question: What is the code to do it a better way.

((Route)objList.get(0)).locationid;
((Route)objList.get(1)).locationid;

The below start of replacement code fails because it skips through the list. There wasn't a good reason for me to finish the code! The loop can't even iterate the required number of loops.

        Iterator <Route> it = objList.iterator();
 
        int size = objList.size();

        for (int i = 0;i < size; i++)
        {
           it.next();
        }

Thank you,
