That just performs a runtime cast to a variable then reference the variable later, which is even worse.
float x = RT.uncheckedFloatCast(-199L);((SpriteBatch)batch) .draw((TextureRegion)((IFn)const__5.getRawRoot()).invoke(const__42.getRawRoot()), x, RT.uncheckedFloatCast(-32L)); I definitely expected the compiler to pay attention to it, although I also discovered at the same time that the compilier doesn't actually resolve expressions like (+ (* 2 4) 1) to just be 9 at compile time either, even though all the values were constants. Both of these are a problem because they are inside the hot loop of the program. (There are some constant math expressions that are only expressions as it is easier to read/change ^:const named things then to just put one resultant number. Is it worth opening a Jira issue for resolving either or both of these at compile time? I looked a briefly at the definition for (float ) but I'm not at all familiar with how the byte code is generated and how to actually replace that with what I'm looking for.
