> PR#8599 8244681: proposes to add compiler warnings for possible lossy > conversions > From the CSR: > > "If the type of the right-hand operand of a compound assignment is not > assignment compatible with the type of the variable, a cast is implied and > possible lossy conversion may silently occur. While similar situations are > resolved as compilation errors for primitive assignments, there are no > similar rules defined for compound assignments." > > This PR anticipates the warnings and adds explicit casts to replace the > implicit casts. > In most cases, the cast matches the type of the right-hand side to type of > the compound assignment. > Since these casts are truncating the value, there might be a different > refactoring that avoids the cast > but a direct replacement was chosen here. > > (Advise and suggestions will inform similar updates to other OpenJDK modules).
