On a quick read-through that makes sense to me. Because you are recompiling the class library only, the updated dll is not copied to the folder where the console project resides - that only happens when you recompile the console. So the running console loads up the old dll. But VS.NET displays the most up-to-date source file it has - the new one. That doesn't look like a bug to me - just you're not compiling the entire solution when you should be.
