Re: [Nmock-general] Feature request

[Steve F. <st...@m3...>]

glad you like it.

We haven't found this to be a problem yet. I guess the invitable 
question is have you profiled your tests and found the proportion of 
time this takes? I suppose it could be done, but you'd have to be 
careful about making sure that the mock class is regenerated when the 
original changes.
