Minor Dolphin 5 issues

Pieter Emmelot-2
Dear Object Artists,

 - Class renames aren't written to the change log file. This makes restoring
from the change log a challence ;-)
 - Right click in Class Diagram tab of a browser selects UndefinedObject
instead of showing a context menu.
 - MoenTree has minor layout error (select View class in Class Browser and
collapse ContainerView, the collapsed/expand box is drawn over the lines)
 - SystemBrowser menu Class | File In is grayed out untill a class is
selected (and of course there is no class to select if you just created a
new package to hold the code you are about to file-in).
 - The 'push down' refactorings menu item is enabled even if a class has no
subclass. Pushing down a variable removes it without a warning (and undo
works like a charm!).

Regards,
Pieter Emmelot

Thanks, these have been recorded and should be fixed in PL2, due out soon,
with the exception of:

This is by design. The Class menu is for commands that operate on classes.
If you wish to file-in an arbitrary chunk file (which may not, of course,
contain a class definition at all), then you should use the 'File In...'
command on the File menu.

Regards

Blair

Hi Pieter,

You might want to look at :
http://www.iam.unibe.ch/~ducasse/WebPages/FreeBooks/Joy/.  The preface mentions
that it is suitable for folks who have never studied programming before.

You might also want to check out
http://www.iam.unibe.ch/~ducasse/WebPages/Turtle/ForRevTurtle2.pdf which is a
draft of "Learning Programming Concepts" by Stephane Ducasse.

Cheers,
Ian
