Hmmm, find_method seems to be called on the superclass, and not the class (or on the class and not the object). So if I try to use, say, objects, should I return a method that inspects the object (and its parent* slots) and then calls the correct method? Because that sounds like I'm implementing AUTOLOAD.

Here's my naive code. I don't seem to be making good use of the class machinery so far:

.namespace [ 'MyStuff'; 'TestProt' ]

.sub 'autoload' :method
  #inspect object and parents here
.end

.sub 'find_method' :vtable
  .param pmc arg0
  .param pmc arg1
  .local pmc autoload
  new_method = find_name 'autoload'
  .return(new_method)
.end

.sub main :main
$P1 = new [ 'MyStuff'; 'TestProt']
$P1.hi()


.end
