Thanks, that did the trick. I'm slowly getting used to
deployment-debugging, but it still is an awful process. I've not
managed to figure out any connection between the stackdump and the
actual problem. So it is piecewise commenting the last changes,
test-deploy, uncomment again, test-deploy again. I get results but it
takes forever.
As for the operations, I use them, because they give me ready made
popup-menus, left and rightclick etc., very convenient. But I agee,
they could use an overhaul and some extensions. Most particularly: a
method of replacing the canonical label of an operation with something
else. I'm developing for a german market and the english menu entries
will not find many friends.
Btw, I think I've never mentioned how massively great that thing is,
you've all managed to put together here. It's managed to become my
favourite language and IDE in half a year. I'm so impressed and
productive with it, that I've decided to make it the basis for my
attempt to start a software company. So, thanks to you all.
