[MonoDevelop] (no subject)

[Lieven CI]

Hi,

The way I see it, the class view you have in the project pad is for going 
quickly to the implementation of a given class or method, mostly for 
browsing through your own code while editing it. The class explorer I'm 
making would be to examine 3rd party assemblies, of which you want to find 
out the class structure, or look up a class or method. When you activate an 
object in this view, you will see the information about it, and will be able 
to quickly get information of related types, like return type and parameter 
types too.

You are right that's a bit stupid to have the same code twice, so I will 
probably merge the code of the class tree into one, but I still think it's a 
good idea to have a browser view, like the one on the screenshot.

Greets,

Lieven van der Heide
