Now I need the last as well. Did I miss a memo? (again? =-) Can you give an example how I can reproduce his? __init is called if no BUILD property is set on the class object.
make test in languages/tcl runs with and without 'word->__init()'. BTW, word."__init"() is AFAIK the correct syntax. I did not even knew that -> also works :-) The unquoted version (word.__init()) is an indirect call (the name of the method to call is in the variable __init)... jens
