yishayw commented on issue #92: Vector.<A>.removeAt does not return object of type A

   Sorry for the laconic title and description. The description should be:
   
   When compiling 
   
   var vector:Vector.<A> = new Vecor.<A>();
   vector.push(new A());
   var a:A = vector.removeAt(0);
   
   I get a compile time error: implicit coercion of object of type Object to A
   
   In other words, the compiler thinks Vector.<A>.removeAt() returns an Object, rather than an A.
   
   Issue #91 is different in that it's a runtime error, and the returned object is actually an Array. I would only be able to get to that error by changing the third line in the above snippet to
   
   var a:A = vector.removeAt(0) as A;
   
   I hope that makes it clearer.
