title: String[].clear in Android 1.5
body: <p>I am trying to port some Android 2.x code to Android 1.5, here is the problematic line:</p>
  
  <pre><code>String[] myStringsArray = ...
  ...
  myStringsArray.clear();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>String[].clear() is not defined in Android 1.5, leading to this error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>[javac] MyClass.java:1692: cannot find symbol
  [javac] symbol  : method clear()
  [javac] location: class java.lang.String[]
  [javac]         myStringsArray.clear();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>What is the best I could use instead?</p>
