title: Utility method for wrapping an object in a collection
body: <p>I'm looking for a static method in the Java core libraries or some other commonly used dependency — preferably one of Apache — that does the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>public static &lt;T&gt; Collection&lt;T&gt; wrap(final T object){
      final Collection&lt;T&gt; collection = new ArrayList&lt;T&gt;();
      collection.add(object);
      return collection;
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Do you know where such a method already exists? Since I guess the problem is common, I don't want to duplicate it's solution.</p>
