Erik de Bruin commented on FLEX-33903:
--------------------------------------
How about if we modify the 'as()' method with a third argument: "isCoercion"
and have the compiler set that to true on a coercion and leave it out (the
default will be false) on an 'as' operator? If the argument is true, we throw
an exception.
> Type coercion missing, perhaps

> Project: Apache Flex
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: FalconJX, FlexJS
> Environment: Mac OS X

> I have AS code like this (from org.apache.flex.html.staticControls.DataGrid):
> public function set dataProvider(value:Object):void
> {
> IDataGridModel(model).dataProvider = value;
> }
> Compiling into JavaScript the result looks like:
> org.apache.flex.html.staticControls.DataGrid.prototype.set_dataProvider =
> function(value) {
> IDataGridModel(this.get_model()).set_dataProvider(value);
> };
> The causes "IDataGridModel not found" runtime error. I believe IDataGridModel
> should be fully qualified (the goog.require is in the file) but perhaps that
> even would not produce the correct coercion (not sure, really).
