A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Removing an element using the list.removeIf(condition) when matches, it calls the remove method and that throws java.lang.UnSupportedOperationException.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
String[] stringArray = new String[]{"AA","BB","CC","DD"};
  List<String> stringList = Arrays.asList(columnArray);
stringList .removeIf((String element) -> element.equals("BB"));
stringList.foreach(System.out::println);

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
element BB should be removed from the list and when stringList.foreach(System.out::println); is called, the three remaining items from the list should get printed.
ACTUAL -
getting java.lang.UnSupportedOperationException for third statement. Even though the Arrays.asList() also does a new ArrayList().
If you don't create using Arrays.asList() or you create your list as new ArrayList(Arrays.asList(columnArray)), it works fine.

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
String[] stringArray = new String[]{"AA","BB","CC","DD"};
        List<String> stringList = Arrays.asList(stringArray);
        stringList.forEach(System.out::println);
        stringList.removeIf((String string) -> string.equals("BB"));
        stringList.forEach(System.out::println);
---------- END SOURCE ----------

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
I create a new list out of the list returned by Arrays.asList(). For example
List<String> stringList = new ArrayList(Arrays.asList(stringArray));

FREQUENCY : always
