It's really not a bug. If there is even a single reference to an

instance of a class, CLEAR CLASS or CLEAR CLASSLIB will not remove the

class definition from memory. The reason CLEAR ALL works is that it

removes all instances of all classes, too.

You need to figure out why there are still instances of your class

in existence.
