Hi !
Actually it is probably a very simple Squeak concept which I haven't
understood, yet.
Serving as an simple example, I would like to write a method, which accepts a
Class as argument and which return the Superclass of that Class.
The problem is that the argument must be an instance of String, that means the
argument aClassName contains an actual class name (e.g. aClassName = 'Object'.
or aClassName = 'ClassBuilder'), however, this is just a String object.
returnSuperClass: aClassName
|aSuperClass|
aSuperClass := aClassName superclass.
^ aSuperClass.
Obviously this method won't work, because aClassName is just an instance of
ByteString. And instances of ByteString cannot understand the message
superclass.
So I need the actual class object which the content of the String aClassName
represents.
How can I achieve ? Or how can I make this method correct ?
(it is imperative, that the argument aClassName is a String).
Thanks for you help in advance.
Best Regards
Warakorn
