Re: cast Element to Elemental2

That can still be done in JsInterop through the Js class - Js.cast does it safely, and Js.uncheckedCast does your JSNI version, but in a way that will continue to work correctly in J2CL.

The class also contains casts to all primitives.

If you are using elemental2, this should already be on your classpath, otherwise you can add it from maven using
 

   <dependency>
      <groupId>com.google.jsinterop</groupId>
      <artifactId>base</artifactId>
      <version>1.0.0-beta-1</version>
    </dependency>

Thomas advice is of course preferable

But sometimes gwt type checking drives me crazy. Then I use this

JsUtil.java

----

   public static native <T, V> V cast(T data) /*-{
        return data;
    }-*/;
----

This casts anything to anything...

You should be able to cast a JSO to a JsType (native ones only?)
And in this case they indeed represent the same kind of objects so this is safe.
