Description Petr Nejedly 2005-10-04 08:40:09 UTC 
If you have a class that references itself and try to safely delete it,
it shows you warning that there are references to the class, while find usages
reveals only self-references.
Pressing Next, Do refactoring correctly deletes the class, but the warning is very
misleading. I haven't even thought I could try pressing Next when I saw the
warning first.
Comment 1 Jan Becicka 2005-10-04 11:00:51 UTC 
References to all elements from current selection should be ignored.
If you select method foo() and method bar() and invoke Safe Delete - no warning
should be shown in this case:

private void foo() {
  bar();
}
private void bar() {
}

Bharath, please take a look at it, thanks.
