Hi,

I'm under the impression that Epicea is supposed to replace RB refactorings at some point.

I think it was never the goal and not supposed to happen. Epicea is only changes logger. Maybe Martin will correct me.

If that is true, is it currently possible to build refactorings by hand?

For example in RB I often do:

``` model := RBNamespace new.

model defineClass: ('<1s> subclass: #<2s><n><t>instanceVariableNames: <3p><n><t>classVariableNames: ''''<n><t>poolDictionaries: ''''<n><t>category: <4p>' expandMacrosWith: 'Object' with: 'MySomething' with: 'var1 var2' with: 'MyPackage'). cls := model classNamed: #MySomething. cls compile: 'var1 ^ var1' classified: 'accessing'.

(ChangesBrowser changes: model changes changes) open ```

or

(removing a method from a class) ``` model := RBNamespace new. model removeMethod: #testTrimRight from: StringTest. (ChangesBrowser changes: model changes changes) open

I use directly RBRefactoring subclasses: ref := RBRemoveMethodRefactoring removeMethods: #(testTrimRight) from: StringTest. ref execute."perform complete changes without preview" ref primitiveExecute. "for preview" (ChangesBrowser changes: {ref}) open.

Nonsense Epicea has nothing to do with RB goals. Epicea is to replace the changes file because we want a better change file and separate the code management from the version recording (micro commits). Source code could be managed in a separate database and microchanges can be managed to recover changes but not actually showing the latest version of a method.
