Very happy indeed :-) .
(Silly me did not remember the "ClassName" property. With same the test is as
easy as you showed.)
Now thinking about why I had been confused is that obviously "self" of an
instance _does_ determine the VMT of the class it is an instance of. That is
why I erroneously assumed only an instance has a VMT. Now after learning that
the VMT is provided already for the class itself seemingly as a static
record, I wonder if the dynamic instance record has a just a pointer to the
VMT of the class or if the classes VMT gets copied when creating an
instance.
AFAIK : Just a pointer to the correct VMT.
