Normally when I connected a float (say, Value1) output to an int type input in VOP, the system would add an autoconvert, such as

// Code produced by: autoconvert
out_put1 = (int) Value1 ;

However, when I use while block, and make the variable in begin block as integer, and connect a float to the variable in the end block, the autoconvert doesn't added. An error message of “different type” will show up, which means I need to convert manually.

I wander if this design has some purpose or just forgetting to add a converting feature

Many thanks : )
