Jerome, could you please tag jdt.core when this change is released?

Our compiler settings flag unnecessary casts as error, and it would be
convenient if we could use a preview of jdt.core until we get the next
integration build.

Thanks,
Markus

The JDT Core API TypeParameter#resolveBinding() currently returns an
IBinding. It should really return an ITypeBinding.
JDT Core plans on changing this 3.1 API to correctly return an
ITypeBinding.

In I20050118-1015, the only clients of this method are within JDT UI:
- ConvertAnonymousToNestedRefactoring.java (line 404)
- MoveInnerToTopRefactoring.java (line 322)
- MoveInstanceMethodProcessor.java (line 309)

The side effect on this client code will be an 'Unecessary cast' warning.

If you see any reason for not making this change, please speak up now.

Jerome
