Summary

0007204: Removing a method loses its method catagory and therefore package classification.

Description

For this one

add a message to a *methodCatagory then remove it.
Look at a current change list.
The method is listed as removed but its catagory/package classification
is listed as the System Catagory for the Class.

Additional Information

Ok. I do know that if this is a real bug its an important one.

I don't know if it is real.

I changed the change list ui to show the Package catagory for each method it reports.
So one possibility is that I didn't cover this case correctly.
The other is that I wrote it correctly and it has uncovered a deeper problem.

When a *catagory method is removed how does MC handle that when the package is resaved?

If I saved the change set with the removal change.
reverted to the previous image (before the removal)
read in the changeset.
then MC save the package would I get the proper result or the wrong one?

And what would happen if I saved the package associate with the class?
Would that save the removal change as well (or instead) of the original package?

Enquiring minds want to know.

This is the seed of something that needs further enquiry. I don't have answers at this point only curiosity and questions.

Yours in curiosity and service, --Jerome Peace
