Hi,

If I uncomment the $u.boo after the re-assignment to $u, I get a "Null

It looks like inheritance is not working as I'd expect.
To make it "work", I have to move the 'set' method into Foo, and
remove all references to Bar.
Thanks for reporting. Initialization of attributes in parent classes
hadn't been implemented; I've done that today. However, the code wasn't
quite right. For attributes in parent classes, you must write them as an
auto-vivification closure of the parent.
$u=Bar.new(Foo{ :x(12) });
Which is implemented now. So now your example with that fix and the one
line uncommented gives:
5
12
9
As a bonus, if you try and do it the way you originally did, you will
now get a more helpful error message too.
This was done in a few patches, but r27268 is the final one that
actually gets your example running.
Thanks,
Jonathan
