In the test suite we normally use:
signal on any name loadErr
.context~package~loadPackage('ooDialog.cls')
for these situations.
But, the problem here, in rough pseudo code:
/* MyTestGroup file */
tg = .MyTestGroup~new
< do some stuff>
::requires 'ooTest.frm'
::class TestSuite
::method setup
if windows call ooDialog.cls
testDialog = .TestDialog~new
...
::class MyTestGroup
<tests>
::class TestDialog subclass UserDialog
<dialog definiton>
--------------------------------------
When MyTestGroup file is initially called, the class objects are
constructed. But, the 'call ooDialog.cls' has not been executed, so
the interpreter does not as yet have any idea what a UserDialog class
is.

There is no way to keep everything for the ListBox tests in one file,
which is what I want. I could jump through a few hoops to get it to
work, but I can't keep all the stuff pertaining to the tests in one
file.
