> Please review this patch adding new lint option, **lossy-conversions**, to 
> javac to warn about type casts in compound assignments with possible lossy 
> conversions.
> 
> The new lint warning is shown if the type of the right-hand operand of a 
> compound assignment is not assignment compatible with the type of the 
> variable.
> 
> The implementation of the warning is based on similar check performed to emit 
> "possible lossy conversion" compilation error for simple assignments. 
> 
> Proposed patch also include complex matrix-style test with positive and 
> negative test cases of lossy conversions in compound assignments.
> 
> Proposed patch also disables this new lint option in all affected JDK modules 
> and libraries to allow smooth JDK build. Individual cases to address possibly 
> lossy conversions warnings in JDK are already addressed in a separate 
> umbrella issue and its sub-tasks.
> 
> Thanks for your review,
> Adam
