Method Details

cast

public static <T> T cast(Object object)

Unsafe cast that instructs the compiler to suppress compiler warnings.

ATTENTION: This increases the chance of runtime exceptions if used improperly.

This method is intended for situations, where the compiler warning is wrong and there is no correct way to go around it. This often occurs when casting collections where unmanageable warnings relating the generic types appear.

Type Parameters:

T - destination type

Parameters:

object - object to cast

Returns:

casted object
