super->meth( ... )
Syntax
... super->meth
| super->constructor ... .
Alternatives:
1. ... super->meth ...
2. ... super->constructor ... .
Effect
This special form of specifying methods statically
can be used in methods of subclasses to call the implementation of a method with the same name in the direct superclass. The superclass is addressed using the
pseudo reference super.
... super->meth ...
Effect
Can be specified in the redefinition of the method meth in the implementation of a subclass and calls the implementation of the method meth in the direct superclass.
A method call super->meth can be used in the same operand positions and in
the same syntax forms as oref->meth. The same rules apply to the passing of parameters.
... super->constructor ...
Effect
Must be specified in an instance constructor implemented in a subclass to call the instance constructor of the direct superclasses. The following restrictions apply before the superclass constructor is called:
After the superclass constructure has been called, the self-reference me-> can be used and instance components can be accessed.
The superclass constuctor can be called using super->constructor only as a standalone statement.
