Method Details

unchecked

public static <T> T unchecked(Object value)

Performs an unchecked cast.

For example this code snipped:

@SuppressWarnings("unchecked") 
Img<T> image = (Img<T>) ArrayImgs.ints(100, 100); 

Can be rewritten as:

Img<T> image = Casts.unchecked( ArrayImgs.ints(100, 100) );

It's possible to explicitly specify the return type:

Img<T> image = Casts.<Img<T>>unchecked( ArrayImgs.ints(100, 100) );

Throws:

ClassCastException - during runtime, if the cast is not possible.
