Subject: Class Methods

Hi all,

I have a routine that creates classes based on data retrieved from a
database.

It goes something like this:

unless Object.const_defined?(class_name)
  Object.const_set(class_name, Class.new(MyBaseClass) do
      
      # define a method, that will apply to all
      # generated classes.
      def foo() 'foo' end

    end)
  end
end


Is there a way of making foo a class method without resorting to eval?

Adelle.
