At the moment there are spectest failures with S02-types/native.t with rakudo.jvm. The failing code is (the same happens for int8 etc)​:

$ perl6-j -e 'my int $i = 1; my $alias := $i; $alias++'
Unhandled exception​: Expected a native int argument for '$a'
  in print_exception (gen/jvm/CORE.setting​:13633)
  in <anon> (gen/jvm/CORE.setting​:13674)
  in command_eval (gen/jvm/stage2/NQPHLL.nqp​:1287)
  in command_eval (src/Perl6/Compiler.nqp​:17)
  in command_line (gen/jvm/stage2/NQPHLL.nqp​:1227)
  in MAIN (gen/jvm/main.nqp​:39)
  in <mainline> (gen/jvm/main.nqp​:35)
  in (gen/jvm/main.nqp)

I'm going to fudge the tests for JVM (with a reference to this ticket).

The issue here was incorrect codegen for native rw parameters in NQP and has been fixed in perl6/nqp commit 9c30a5d0921b884840e859047d0d51fa0be484c3. I've unfudged the tests again.

The RT System itself - Status changed from 'new' to 'open'
