This borrowing includes polymorphism, the idea that a class can have subclasses that inherit features from it.In cases where the given OClass instance is itself a subclass, you can use this method to retrieve a list of all classes that are superclasses to this class.

Syntax

List<String> OClass().getSuperClassesNames()

Return Value

This method returns a List instance that contains instances of the String class, providing names of all classes registered as superclasses of this class.
