The reserved word inherited plays a special role in implementing polymorphic
behavior. It can occur in method definitions, with or without an identifier
after it.
If inherited is followed by a method identifier, it represents a normal method
call, except that the search for the method begin
s with the immediate ancestor
of the enclosing method抯 class. For example, when
inherited Create(...);
occurs in the definition of a method, it calls the inherited Create.
When inherited has no identifier after it, it refers to the inherited method
with the same name as the enclosing method. In this case, inherited can appear
with or without parameters;
if no parameters are specified, it passes to the
inherited method the same parameters with which the enclosing method was
called. For example,
inherited;
occurs frequently in the implementation of constructors. It calls the inherited
constructor with the same parameters that were passed to the descendant.
