Description skiwi 2014-01-18 17:21:39 UTC 
For the following piece of code:

byte[] bytes = new byte[12];
Arrays.fill(bytes, (byte)0);

Netbeans suggests that I should remove the unnecessary cast to byte, - giving Arrays.fill(bytes, 0) - however that leads to an error, as Java cannot figure out which overload of Arrays.fill to use then.
