Is there any way to find where an implicit cast is being done.

Such as from int to long?

Sorry but in what context are you speaking of?

Only with jdk 1.5 you will see warnings that autoboxing is being used..

I have a variable of type int:

int a;

A method takes a long:

public void someMethod(long b)
{
}

If I call the method:
someMethod(a);

Then the Java compiler does an implicit cast from int (a) to long (b). I
need to find these implicit casts. The requirements in the project
changed mid-stream, and where we were using int's to store keys, we must
now store long's. It is easy enough to change the method signatures, but
this does not show where some long forgotten variable stores it as an int.

Did the eyeball thing, but with over 700 classes.....

Sigh.

I guess I need to bite the bullet and change over to 1.5. We are at 1.4.

Thanks
