      The compiler generates both a warning and an error on this program:

      class Outer<T extends Number & Comparable<String>> {
          void foo(T t) {
              Comparable<Integer> ci = (Comparable<Integer>) t;
          }
      }

      Outer.java:3: warning: [unchecked] unchecked cast
      found : T
      required: java.lang.Comparable<java.lang.Integer>
              Comparable<Integer> ci = (Comparable<Integer>) t;
                                                             ^
      Outer.java:3: inconvertible types
