Invoking inherited type scripts

02 Sept 2012, 19:54If you have an object that inherits from a subtype, is there a way to invoke a script in that inherited subtype?
An example might make it clearer:
Let's say you have a base type with an attribute. That base type is used in a number of places. The base type has a "changed" attribute script with default behavior. Let's say that in one of your derived objects, you want to extend that behavior by adding your own "changed" script at the object level, processing some custom code there, and then invoking the inherited type behavior.
Is there a way from the object to invoke the overridden attribute script contained in the type?
(This is not critical. I can architect things other ways. But it's a standard pardigm/idion in object-oriented languages, and I was curious.
