Description

ClassGenerator does not correctly generate byte code for numeric constants other than Integer and Double. For example, if a number is too large to fit in an Integer, a Long is created by ASTBuilder. However, ClassGenerator assumes it is an Integer, incorrectly generating byte code which will fail at runtime. An error should be produced at compile time.
