Small issue with the Code Mentor

(repost, since news.totallyobjects.com doesn't distribute my article)

After using the Code Mentor on the code I've written so far, I am
really, really impressed with the tool. This is just great!
(I am a little less impressed with my own coding now, but that's a
different story ;) ).

There are two feedback messages though, where I do not get the detail
content in the right pane:

- Miscellaneous -> Redundant class name in selector
- Miscellaneous -> Refers to class name instead of "self class"

I assume that this is a problem within the tool itself.

Once again congratulations to OA! The new version was well worth the wait.

A quick followup: The category "Unnecessary code -> Unreferenced
instance variables" shows some content in the right pane, but it does
not sow the classes involved.

In some cases - the pane doesn't update properly, try resizing your window
(minimize maximize) to see if it redraws.

Otherwise it could be that there is something up with those two in
particular.

Tim,

The other panes work fine, so it must be something with those three.

That bug was fixed before the release - there were a whole slew of redraw
issues all (eventually) chased down to one small line of code.

Actually it could be because the Xml doc containing the descriptions does
not match up. I'll investigate.

I've seen it on my Win2k laptop (I know, it's not supported)
quite a few times, for example in the package view of the system
browser. I'll try and take notes during my next Dolphin session.

Have a nice weekend,

Could you add

Unnecessary code->Instance variables not read AND written

  to the list as well, that doesn't show the methods either.
