"value" is declared as a short ivar in:

    public int hashCode() {
        return (int) value;
    }

Which warns: "Unnecessary cast to type int for expression of type short"

But here:

    public String toString() {
        return String.valueOf((int) value);
    }

I get: "Unnecessary cast to type int for expression of type short. It is already
compatible with the argument type int"

Shouldn't the messages be the same? If there is a subtle difference it should be
better explained. Thanks.
