If you were just using JList by itself you would say:

 final JList<String> flavour = new JList<String>( new String[] {
                    "strawberry", "chocolate", "vanilla" } );

Your new class KList can have a built-in fixed contained type, e.g.
String or it can have a variable one. 

The first is pretty obvious :

class KList extends JList<String> 

The second you can discover by looking for some similar Sun code in
src.zip, e.g.

public interface MutableComboBoxModel<E> extends ComboBoxModel<E> {

so I would think

KList <E> extends JList<E>
should work.

For additional hints, see http://mindprod.com/jgloss/generics.html
and links

I have not tested this and quite commonly things in generics I think
should work do not. Take this just as a hint of something to try.

For me, the appeal of computer programming is that
even though I am quite a klutz,
I can still produce something, in a sense
perfect, because the computer gives me as many
chances as I please to get it right.
