Decompiler Casting Dot Net Source

This program is adapted from the book Decompiling Java, chapter 1.

using System;
public class Casting {
    public static void Main(String[] args){
        for(char c=(char)0; c < (char)128; c++) {
            Console.WriteLine("ascii {0} character {1}", (int)c, c);
        }
    }
}

The only real trick here is the cast to integer in the call to WriteLine; it would be nice for the decompiler to type the for loop variable (here c) as a char rather than as an integer.

It's surprising how many decompilers fail this simple test.
