I do not get the fix anymore in this case in current builds. Changing to enhancement - we should try to provide some fixes for such cases. |
This line of Java code byte[] bytes = { 0x80 }; gives this error possible loss of precision found : int required: byte but the hint then is Change type of bytes to byte[] where it should either be Change type of bytes to int[] or (possibly more helpful in this case) Cast 0x80 to byte Found with build 200707111200.
