About retryCoerce and generality in Squeak

Hi

I wanted to show the coercion mechanism in smalltalk (I read part of it 
in the InsideSmalltalk volume one book).
In  VW it is based on generality and retryCoerce:

In Squeak I could not find generality and related. I only found 
adaptToInteger and other....
Does someone knows if this is equivalent in terms of extensibility?
