In what order (of target data types) do you expect we try to convert to, if ambiguous - especially when methods with more than one arguments are involved? We have seen behavior that is dependent on the ordering of method definitions in the Java class file; that is something we cannot easily support. We have seen errors arise from JS code trusting its numeric data is int, while it was double (or the other way round) unexpectedly; that's not something we can solve automatically in the engine. <br class=""><br class="">We are still working on providing better compatibility. One of the next improvements will be to explicitly select which method+signature you want to call (<a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://github.com/graalvm/graaljs/issues/37).**AThis__;wqA!!GqivPVa7Brio!Pgc0pm15UXxeRsrjCp2Xr2PzWFlWlnyxs0yYGR3h2FFp0DeE7cwmwVMxz11rRpDZRL7AcQ$">https://github.com/graalvm/graaljs/issues/37).

Feel free to file any issues you come across in our Github Issue tracker; we can prioritize issues of high interest.<br class=""><br class="">Note that the Nashorn Compatibility Mode is not something we would encourage you to use on the long run. It helps you to migrate more easily now, but with it enabled, you might miss newer features of Graal.js/GraalVM, or run into compatibility issues in your JS code (JSAdapter has been superseded by ES6's Proxy, that JS Strings are in fact java.lang.Strings is an implementation detail that might not be correct forever, etc.).<br class=""><br class="">Best,<br class="">Christian<br class=""><br class=""><br class=""><br class=""><br class=""><br class=""><br class="">Am 06.09.2018 um 14:20 schrieb Andreas Mueller:<br class=""><blockquote type="cite" cite="mid:A0CA4089-1A8A-4994-BD7F-4EFF5501FC5F@iit.de" class="">Hi,<br class=""><br class="">I’ve tested the latest graalvm release and I’m still getting an exception due to lossy conversion.<br class=""><br class="">Actually I have a JS var that contains a String but is an int and the Java method call is int.
