Harbs edited a comment on issue #74: Assign to int or uint variable does not convert Number from floating point to integer URL: https://github.com/apache/royale-compiler/issues/74#issuecomment-462658868 Regarding the Language.string discussion, I just discovered a difference between `val.toString()` and `"" + val`: `"" + val` implicitly calls `val.valueOf()` instead of `val.toString()`. If there is a difference in behavior between what you get from `valueOf()` and `toString()`, the two results will not be identical. I just ran into this with XML where the new code was causing the XML `valueOf` to be called and it was returning 0 instead of a space. I guess it's good we found the bug in XML, but it made me realize this difference. I'm not sure which behavior is more pure. I'm leaning towards saying that `valueOf` is better because `Language.string` is used for implicit coercions which the implementation of `valueOf` was designed for. I'm struggling to find a case where any of this should matter though... ;)
