Problem with _inherited

[niels.bosma@…]

For the following code:

dojo.require("dojo.lang.declare");

dojo.declare("my.classes.G1", null, {

activate : function() {

dojo.debug("G1:activate");

}

});

dojo.declare("my.classes.G2", my.classes.G1, {

activate : function() {

dojo.debug("G2:activate");

this._inherited("activate",arguments);

}

});

dojo.declare("my.classes.G3", my.classes.G2, {

activate : function() {

dojo.debug("G3:activate");

this._inherited("activate",arguments);

}

});

dojo.declare("my.classes.G4", my.classes.G3, {

/*

activate : function()

{

dojo.debug("G4:activate");

this._inherited("activate",arguments);

}

*/

});

var obj = new my.classes.G4(); obj.activate();

I get the following debug printouts.

DEBUG: G3:activate DEBUG: G3:activate DEBUG: G2:activate DEBUG: G1:activate

G3 is evaluated twice.

"inherited" is known to be brittle, that's why it's now private (note the underscore).

The 0.9 version is more robust.
