LossyPrimitiveCompare
Using an unnecessarily-wide comparison method can lead to lossy comparison

The problem

Implicit widening conversions when comparing two primitives with methods like Float.compare can lead to lossy comparison. For example, Float.compare(Integer.MAX_VALUE, Integer.MAX_VALUE - 1) == 0. Use a compare method with non-lossy conversion, or ideally no conversion if possible.

Suppression

Suppress false positives by adding the suppression annotation @SuppressWarnings("LossyPrimitiveCompare") to the enclosing element.
