Hi, I have a call to MethodHandles#explicitCastArgument with first argument being my MethodHandle(Groovy3135Bug,String,float,float,float,float,float)Object and the type I cast to being (Groovy3135Bug,String,Byte,Short,Integer,Long,Float)Object
Ignoring the first two I should have some kind of unboxing followed by casting for most arguments. In the javadoc to that method I read: """ If T0 is a reference and T1 a primitive, an unboxing conversion will be applied at runtime, possibly followed by a Java casting conversion (JLS 5.5) on the primitive value, possibly followed by a conversion from byte to boolean by testing the low-order bit. """ Aren't T0 and T1 in my case for example T0=Byte and T1=float? Unless I mix up T0 and T1, this should be working, or not? Well... it fails with a NPE... that can't be right, can it? If I first cast to an all-Object signature, and then to the target, then it works... but that can't be how it should be, or not? bye Jochen -- Jochen "blackdrag" Theodorou - Groovy Project Tech Lead blog: http://blackdragsview.blogspot.com/ german groovy discussion newsgroup: de.comp.lang.misc For Groovy programming sources visit http://groovy-lang.org _______________________________________________ mlvm-dev mailing list mlvm-dev@openjdk.java.net http://mail.openjdk.java.net/mailman/listinfo/mlvm-dev
