I wasn't what to title this post.

Please just take a moment to inspect...

Object subclasses

collect: [:class| class -> class methods size]

thenSelect: [:map|

(map value between: 1 and: 5) and:

(map key printString first = $P) ].

Then choose (a random example)...

"PackageChecker->1" item

"key" variable

[Meta] tab

"PackageCheck class" item

and I'd expect a single method shown, rather than the zero I see.

Actually I'd expect the choice in that last step

to be "PackageCheck" rather than "PackageCheck class"

Now continue with, browse "PackageCheck class"

then switch to instance side, and there I see the single class I expected earlier.

So is there something wrong there, or am I having a brain freeze?

cheers -ben

Re: curious

Ahh... it was a brain freeze.

The [meta] tab shows the methods of the selected instance,

but my "key" is not an instance of PackageCheck,

it the PackageCheck Class, so the class-side methods are shown.
