Generic Method In Generic Class

1 import java.util.ArrayList;
2 import java.util.List;
3
4 public class MyList<E> {
5
6 public List<E> list;
7 public int length;

[code]...

I am trying to define a class MyList, which i just a wrapper around an ArrayList, no real purpose, just for the sake of learning Generics. Idea here is that I create a parameterized class, MyList<E>, which holds a parameterized instance var of type List<E>. I have an add method which adds an element of type E to the List<E>. If I create an instance of MyList, call it 'm', for some reason when I try to call a method on that instance the compiler complains that 'm' cannot be found.
