The example is System.out.println(Inherited.getOmClass()) here.

Probably. What happens in our case is that the call always goes to
TablePeer.getOMClass(). If that does not exist,
BaseTablePeer.getOMClass() gets called. If this didn't work, we could
never use TablePeer.doSelect() because the method is in fact in
BaseTablePeer. If you add a static method getOMClass() to TablePeer,
this will get called. This is not exactly an "override" but works as
such. Torque has many places where this behavior is employed.

Well, I'd rather concentrate myself on the runtime... :-)
