Description Edwin Park CLA 2013-05-28 16:37:01 EDT 
Xtend 2.4 does not allow long values to be used in range operators. For example:

val longValue = 123L
for (i : 0 .. longValue) {
  println(i)
}

Typing in the above Xtend code produces the error 'Type mismatch: cannot convert from long to int'.

do we want to have this feature? or do we want the user to overload the .. operator for long her/himself
