This test demonstrates how simple it is to create Scala Style Class Mixin Composition. Below is an example taken from the Scala web site's example section, and trancoded to Class::MOP.
NOTE: We require SUPER for this test to handle the issue with SUPER:: being determined at compile time.

A class can only be used as a mixin in the definition of another class, if this other class extends a subclass of the superclass of the mixin. Since ColoredPoint3D extends Point3D and Point3D extends Point2D which is the superclass of ColoredPoint2D, the code above is well-formed.
class Point2D(xc: Int, yc: Int) {
val x = xc;
val y = yc;
override def toString() = "x = " + x + ", y = " + y;
}
class ColoredPoint2D(u: Int, v: Int, c: String) extends Point2D(u, v) {
val color = c;
def setColor(newCol: String): Unit = color = newCol;
override def toString() = super.toString() + ", col = " + color;
}
class Point3D(xc: Int, yc: Int, zc: Int) extends Point2D(xc, yc) {
val z = zc;
override def toString() = super.toString() + ", z = " + z;
}
class ColoredPoint3D(xc: Int, yc: Int, zc: Int, col: String)
extends Point3D(xc, yc, zc)
with ColoredPoint2D(xc, yc, col);
Console.println(new ColoredPoint3D(1, 2, 3, "blue").toString())
"x = 1, y = 2, z = 3, col = blue"
