Description:

instances represent method-changes (as done in the browser). 
They are typically held in a ChangeSet.

Class protocol:

 class: cls selector: sel source: src category: cat

 className: clsName selector: sel source: src category: cat

Instance protocol:

 category

 category: aCategory

 changeMethod

 changeSelector

(comment from inherited method)
the selector, if it is a method change. Nil oherwise

 class: cls selector: sel source: src category: cat

 classIsJava

Returns true, if this change is for Java class (i.e., if it is for
Smalltalk method that extends Java class)

 classIsJava: aBoolean

Sets whether this change is for Java class (i.e., if it is for
Smalltalk method that extends Java class)

 className

(comment from inherited method)
Returns class name of the class as it was present in the original change.
For changes from a file with namespace override, this will be the
className *without* toplevel namespace, but with all owning classes
(if the change class is a private class).
For changes generated internally (by the browser), this will be the full name,
and the namespace override will be nil.

cg: this is all very confusing and needs some cleanup.
However it will be done, any change here needs checks in all users of this code.

 className: clsName selector: sel source: src category: cat privacy: priv

 delta

obsolete: please use deltaDetail

 deltaDetail

Returns a delta to the current state as a ChangeDelta object

 imageSource

return the source for the in-image version of the method

 methodCategory

 previousPackage

 previousVersion

return the value of the instance variable 'previousVersion' (automatically generated)

 previousVersion: something

set the value of the instance variable 'previousVersion' (automatically generated)

 previousVersionSource

return the value of the instance variable 'previousVersion' (automatically generated)

 privacy

 selector

 selector: aSymbol

 apply

apply the change

 isConflict

true if this change is different than what is already in the image
(i.e. it overwrites some existing code)

 isForSameAs: changeB

return true, if the given change represents a change for the same
thingy as the receiver (i.e. same method, same definition etc.).

 sameAs: changeB

return true, if the given change represents the same change as the receiver.

 asNamedMethodChange

 basicFileOutOn: aStream

self printClassNameOn:aStream.

 printOn: aStream

append a user printed representation of the receiver to aStream.
The format is suitable for a human - not meant to be read back.

 printWithoutClassNameOn: aStream

 printWithoutOwningClassOn: aStream

 sourceForMethod

 isMethodChange

true if this is a method related change

 isMethodChangeForCopyrightMethod

(comment from inherited method)
Return true if this is a change of #copyright method

 isMethodChangeForExtensionsVersionMethod

true if this is a change for an extensionsVersion method

 isMethodChangeForVersionMethod

true if this is a change for a version method

 isMethodCodeChange

true if this is a method's code change (not package, category etc.)
