RootObject
. In multiply-inherited classes, the
order in which each class is searched determines which method
is invoked, especially in cases where different superclasses
may define different implementations for that generic
function. ScriptX searches the class hierarchy in a
depth-first, topological fashion. (For more information on
inheritance, see "Multiple
Inheritance" on page 122 of Chapter 6, "Defining Classes and
Objects.") Each individual superclass is searched before
any common superclasses are searched.
