Please do not forget to forward the invocation to the class INIT and class NEW method to their superclasses.
HTH, ---rony P.S.: Also, you could use metaclasses for that purpose and on demand just use the class' directive's METACLASS subkeyword to point to that class. In that case be aware that a specialization of the class named CLASS is needed and that the "init" and "new" methods there are instance methods. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sponsored by Intel(R) XDK Develop, test and display web and hybrid apps with a single code base.
