Description Silenio Quarti CLA 2002-05-22 17:47:16 EDT 
Import the classes below and you will see that "SwitchTest"
has no compiler errors, but it has a "light icon" in the
line "case OS.CONST: return;" with the following tooltip text:

    "Type mismatch: cannot convert from int to short"

public class OS {
	public static final int CONST = 23 * 1024;
}
public class SwitchTest {
	public short c;	
	public static void main(String[] arguments) {
		short c = 1;
		switch (c) {
			case OS.CONST: return;
		}
	}
}

This isn't a duplicate of 18175. Moving to JDT/Core for fixing
Comment 3 Philipe Mulet CLA 2002-06-05 11:13:54 EDT 
Until field constants are part of the JavaModel, we have to live with this bug, 
since the compiler is only authorizing type mismatch if the constant is 
representable into the target type.

Deferring
Comment 4 Philipe Mulet CLA 2002-09-18 07:37:49 EDT 
We want to address this for 2.1, by persisting field initialization source 
inside the model, for further usage - in particular for temp problems while 
reconciling.

2.1-M2 candidate

Comment 7 Jerome Lanneluc CLA 2002-10-08 10:38:08 EDT 
Changed Java model to persist the initialization source. Added flag on 
SourceTypeConverter to compute the AST from the initialization source if 
needed. Changed CompilationUnitProblemFinder to use this flag.
Comment 8 David Audel CLA 2002-10-17 10:10:48 EDT 
Verified.
