I'm writing a static analysis tool, and my ASTVisitor needs to check the
compatibility of two types.
The problem is that one of the two objects is an ITypeBinding, while the
other is an IType. ITypeBinding has a isSubTypeCompatible method, but I
need another ITypeBinding.
The only thing I have found so far is to get the ASTNodes from the
IType, search for the TypeDeclaration I want, and get its ITypeBinding.
This has two problems:
1) I'd like to avoid loading in the entire AST for this type.
2) It doesn't appear to work anyway, presumably due to bug 80715.

Is there either another way to determine a subtyping relationship, or a
way to work around this bug?
Thanks,
Ciera
