You really really really do *not* want to create a subclass of OrderedCollection. Your object will *have* an OrderedCollection, but should not *be* one. If you want to respond to all of the protocol of OrderedCollection, feel free to delegate it to your actual instance variable. Yes, it's a bright shiny object to want to subclass that, but just like subclassing SmallInteger, it's both legal and dumb. :) -- Randal L.
