I don't know if that's what the original post meant, but I'm
interested in knowing how to specify the exact class which method is
called when inheritance is involved.

Example (C++):
class Father
{
  virtual void m();
}

class Child
{
   void m();
   void aM() {Father::m();}
}

This forces the call to the method "m" of the Father class, rather
than using Child's. Is this possible in Ruby; if yes, how ? If
no...why ? :-(

TIA,
