Description Stan Sutton CLA 2008-05-06 19:34:30 EDT 
In the New Source Folding wizard, when you click on the "class" hyperlink that brings up the New Class wizard, the proper interface type is filled in, but the superclass field is left blank--even though we have defined a base type for this service.

The problem seems to be that the name of the base class does not correspond to the name of the interface in the proper way (or vice versa).  The interface is specified in the "basedOn" attribute of the (implementation) class field, and the superclass name has to be inferred on that basis.  The the interface and class are named too differently , the latter won't be found from the former.

This problem was only exposed after bug #401 was fixed.

I would change the name of the source-folder base class and declare this bug fixed, but at the moment I can't access SourceForge to check in the solution.
