[Forge 1.10.2] Can I normally cast from IInventory to IItemHandler?

[lethinh]

I know this is a really dumb question but I wondered if I can cast from IInventory to IItemHandler. Because it has some methods that use IInventory instead of the IItemHandler capability system. Like Container#onCraftMatrixChanged, IContainerListener#sendAllWindowProperties.,... I would greatly appreciated your help!

No.
IItemHandler, and IInventory are both interfaces, that both do similar things, but in the end, they are separate things altogether.
A class can implement both, but often enough, they are not both used.

IF said class makes use of both interfaces, then you can freely cast an instance of that class to either.

However, using both is incredibly redundant, as in the end, they do the same thing, with IItemHandler being the better choice, as it handles much of the logic for you.

I mean how to make  it work wit  Container#onCraftMatrixChanged, IContainerListener#sendAllWindowProperties. They only use IInventory

Yes, I understand that. But why do you need these methods? onCraftMatrixChanged only calls detectAndSendChanges by default and sendAllWindowProperties only makes sense with something that natively implements IInventory.

So what method will I use if I use IItemHandler to update the progress bar?

You call sendProgressBarUpdate which will call updateProgressBar on the client.

I have problem that the item insert/extract doesn't work. Each time I insert, the stack I insert doesn't decrease and when I extract, the stack doesn't take out. Here is my code:
