Question about class-methods

[jpellegrini]

Hi @egallesio !

I see that there is class-direct-methods, whose semantics is clear to me:

 (define-method method-A ((a <A>)) (print 'A))
 (define-class <C> (<A>) ())
 (define-method method-C ((c <C>)) (print 'C))

 (map method-generic-function (class-direct-methods <A>))
     => (#[<generic> method-A (1)])

But then I thought class-methods would list the methods specializing on a class and all its SUPERclasses (which are the ones that I would expect to apply to it), but its the opposite:

 (map method-generic-function (class-methods <A>))
     => (#[<generic> method-C (1)]
         #[<generic> method-A (1)])

It lists methods specialized on SUBclasses.

I couldn't find something like this in CLOS (I'm pretty sure it's there, I just can't find it)... And I was thinking -- would it be the case of having both? Upwards and downwards?
