[Cuis-dev] Behavior of #superclass: message

[Facundo Javier Gelatti]

Hi!

I've noticed that the #superclass: message does not affect the superclass
of the (meta)class of the receiver. For example:

Object subclass: #A instanceVariableNames: '' classVariableNames: ''
poolDictionaries: ''.
Object subclass: #B instanceVariableNames: '' classVariableNames: ''
poolDictionaries: ''.

B superclass. " => Object "
B class superclass. " => Object class "

B superclass: A.

B superclass. " => A "
B class superclass. " => Object class (not A class)"

The Class>>#superclass: method has a comment that says "Not to be used
lightly!", so I'm not sure if this is in fact the expected behavior (but at
least I was surprised by it).

Cheers!
Facu
