Hi,

From what I understand, 'super' keyword invokes a method with the same name as the current method in the superclass of the current class. Below in the autoload method, there is a call to 'super'. I would like to know in which superclass I would find a method with the same name or what does the call to 'super' do

module ActiveSupport
  module Autoload
    ...      
    def autoload(const_name, path = @@at_path)
      full = [self.name, @@under_path, const_name.to_s, path].compact.join("::")
      location = path || Inflector.underscore(full)

      if @@eager_autoload
        @@autoloads[const_name] = location
      end
      super const_name, location
    end
   .... 
  end
end

module ActiveRecord
  extend ActiveSupport::Autoload
  ...
  autoload :TestCase
  autoload :TestFixtures, 'active_record/fixtures'
end

This code is from the rails master branch. Thanks much.
