Hello Andy, we should change the subject or start a new thread, maybe

Oh no, it's not working as it should, too bad: this time I cleared my cache I did not take care of that carefully enough I guess... anyway, the good news is that: I think we still are not talking about _exactly_ the same think here and hope that when we do, you will agree; Indeed please note that in the code of my previous message, the define setter on the <b> class _is_ commented: i am sorry if it induced you in some sort of misunderstanding, but that line should _not_ even exist (that was a trick to circumvent till now); If that line does not exist, then using the setter on a <b> instance must call/execute the code of the setter defined at superclass level, <a> in our case. by no mean, it should internally/hiddenly redefine my beautiful setter :), in my back, not without talking to me first anyway :) So, here is the code, without the setter being redefined...: ;; module a.scm starts here (define-module (a) #:use-module (oop goops) #:export (<a> !width)) (define-class <a> () (width #:accessor !width #:init-keyword #:width #:init-value 0)) (define-method ((setter !width) (self <a>) width) ;; here comes complex code, computing earth orbit and calling lower ;; level clutter internals, such as the <clutter-actor> layout... (pk "this is <a> !width setter method, hello!") (slot-set! self 'width width)) ;; module ends here ;; module b.scm starts here (define-module (b) #:use-module (oop goops) #:use-module (a) #:export (<b>) #:re-export (!width)) (define-class <b> (<a>)) ;; module ends here And here is what I get, which is not correct: since I did not redefine anything at <b> level, the slot and 'associated functionality', the setter in this case, must be 'fully' inherited: it is the setter I define on <a> that must be called when being used on any instances, all <a> and <b> instances [ this time I left the guile version as well), please double check david@capac:~/alto/projects/guile-tests/goops 15 $ guile GNU Guile 2.0.11.113-583a Copyright (C) 1995-2014 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
