Casting doesn't seem to interact with type inference in the way I'd expect it to. I am allowed to write this:
public class Foo { val i = new Cell(5); } However, this is probably not what I want, though, because the type of i is Cell[Int{self==5}], not Cell[Int]. This, on the other hand, does what I expect (defining a static type IntCell = Cell[Int] also works). public class Foo { val i = new Cell[Int](5); } What confuses me is that I'm also unable to cast an Int{self == 5} to an Int to get the same result: // Same as the first example, not the second; i has type Cell[Int{self==5}]. public class Foo { val i = new Cell(5 as Int); } Is this a bug, or is this the expected behavior for a reason I do not understand? -- Robert J.
