Hi,
I saw Remi's reply after I sent my reply.
The questions I asked were just to confirm that my suspicion (int.class gets
compiled into Integer.TYPE) were true - I am currently on mobile, so I couldn't
test it myself.
In short, my mail doesn't provide any additional value, and if I had seen
Remi's reply, I wouldn't have sent mine.
Best regards,
Johannes
