[Glass] Very strange error - one method can not be found ...

[itlists@schrievkrom.de via Glass]

* the method is there. I saw it and all code worked in a workspace in
Jade without any problems - and recompiling all methods solved the
problems. The structure of the class A has not changed and is pretty old
and was not updated and other methods of this class worked without
problems. I see no class versions or stuff like this.

Actually I had/have no idea what went wrong. I just wanted to mention it.

If you had a class A but removed it and created a new A, then the compiled method would still refer to the removed class. Recompiling the method did the lookup over again and found the new A.
