It doesn't help. :-( It seems to do the same thing as B.eval, which still ends up in C.eval. This seems to be a compiler (or language?) bug to me? One should be able to specify a static binding to a specific base class method, without always ending up in the overridden method. Anyway, I figured out a workaround: rename .save to .saveImpl and make it private, then make .save a wrapper to call .saveImpl, and have the delegate directly invoke .saveImpl. It's still a pain, though. :-/ T -- "The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts." -- Bertrand Russell.
