Getting java.util.ConcurentModificationError in collision detecton

Here I am getting java.util.ConcurentModificationError in the line for(Candy c2 : candylist) {. Can any one tell me whats wrong? I am trying to check the collision detection of several images managed in two linked lists say

This code is the collision detection of balloon and fire :

public void collision(final Balloon mb1) {
    ImageView iv11 = mb1.getIv1();
    Rect r1 = new Rect(iv11.getLeft(), iv11.getTop(), iv11.getLeft() + iv11.getWidth(), iv11.getTop()+iv11.getHeight());
    for (Candy c2 : candylist) {
        if (c2 != null) {
            ImageView iv22 = c2.getIv2();
            if (iv22 != null) {
                Rect r2 = new Rect(iv22.getLeft(), iv22.getTop(), iv22.getLeft() + iv22.getWidth(), iv22.getTop()+iv22.getHeight());
                if (r1.intersect(r2)) {
                    runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
                        public void run() {
                            mb1.getTt1().cancel();                  
                            if (mb1.isBursted() == false) {
                                mb1.setBursted(true);
                                update(mb1);                            
                            }
                        }
                    });
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

public void update(final Balloon mb1) {
    final int bp = balloonList.indexOf(mb1);

    if (bp != -1) {
        if (sound == true) {
            mp = MyUtils.playSound(R.raw.bur, Game.this);
        }

        final ImageView iv1 = mb1.getIv1(); 
        iv1.setImageResource(R.drawable.negate);
        iv1.setEnabled(false);
        Animation a1 = AnimationUtils.loadAnimation(Game.this, R.anim.fade);
        iv1.startAnimation(a1);
        TimerTask tt = mb1.getTt1();
        tt.cancel();
        TimerTask tt1 = new TimerTask() {
            public void run() {
                runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
                    public void run() {
                        balloonList.set(bp, null);
                        al.removeView(iv1);
                    }
                });
            }
        };

        t1.schedule(tt1, 1200);
        missed++;
        score = score-10;

        if (music == true) {
            if (mp2 != null) {
                MyUtils.releaseSound(mp2);
            }
        }
        showscore();
        showExitDialog(score);
    }
}

Isn't it obvious. You are not suppose to modify a collection after getting a iterator on it in any way except through the Iterator's own remove or add methods.

Although you haven't provided the complete code I suppose at:

for (Candy c2 : candylist)

Somewhere in the body of the forEach loop you are structurally modifying the candylist and hence you are getting the ConcurrentModificationException

From the stacktrace I presume you are using LinkedList for candylist.

As per LinkedList javadoc:

if the list is structurally modified at any time after the iterator is created, in any way except through the Iterator's own remove or add methods, the iterator will throw a ConcurrentModificationException.

So instead of using enhanced for statement which resolves to :

for (I #i = Expression.iterator(); #i.hasNext(); )

I would suggest you to get an Iterator over candylist and modify it using the Iterator's own remove or add methods.

your collection candylist is modified while you are iterating over it.

Asuming that your collection is ThreadSafe, you should create a copy of the collection before iterating over it.

for (Candy c2 : candylist.toArray(new Candy[0]))
