How to identify an inner class

The only thing you can do is use the is keyword. Trying to get the class name of a class will always return the built-in class that was extended.

Yes and no. You cannot get the name of the class as a string from the object, but you can from the script: "is_class" function for Objects of a custom class - #12 by zigg3c

1.Are inner classes always child-class of RefCounted?

Any class in Godot automatically inherits RefCounted if extends is omitted. Inner classes are no exception, but you can write class testing extends Object and thus have it not inherit RefCounted.

If that is the case, I guess a workaround like this would do for me:

	var s = c.get_script()
	var ref = RefCounted.new()
	ref.set_script(s)
	assert(ref is testing)
	print(ref.a,ref.b)

You can also create a new object instance directly from the script:

var t := Test.new()
var s := t.get_script() as Script
print(s.new() is Test)
