You were probably looking for the C<get_mro> opcode. Your get_parents() is only returning the immediate parent(s) of that _class_ but not the full chain, which is in C<vtable->mro>. See also: perldoc src/ops/pmc.ops > I dug around a bit and couldn't find a reason for why it shouldn't work. You are calling it on a ParrotObject, which ought to delegate the call to it's class.

See also: http://perlcabal.org/~lt/toreview/Cfunc.pod But there is: inline op typeof (out STR, invar PMC) { $1 = VTABLE_name(interpreter, $2); goto NEXT(); } i.e. the C<typeof> opcode is the interface to the class name. > -- c leo
