Description Nathan Gilbert CLA 2018-01-28 11:42:34 EST 
When switching on an expression that evaluates to a long, double, or float, an error results. This is correct.  It would be nice if Quick Fix treats the target type as int, and provided the same suggestions as for assigning to an int.

Example:
long l;
switch(l) {}
//Quick Fix: Add cast to 'int'
//Quick Fix: Change type of 'l' to 'int'
