Description

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create an class with a property that is of a custom type.
2. In the class that defines the type used above, create an instance of the class above.
3. Assign a value to the property in step 1 using the keyword this: instance.prop = this;

Actual Results:

I get a compiler error for implicit coercion of the custom type to the custom type.

Example:
1067: Implicit coercion of a value of type com.sf.view:TimeSlotDisplay to an unrelated type com.sf.view:TimeSlotDisplay.

Expected Results:

No error.

Workaround (if any):

Clean project. But error seems to appear approximately every other time I make a change in the file. Using type casting does not help.
