Subject: Re: loading "plugins"

Oops I realized you might want to "discover" what classes you loaded
so something like this might be closer:

before_classes = []
ObjectSpace.each_object(Class) { |obj|  before_classes << obj }

base= "."
Dir.glob("#{base}/*.rb").each { |plugin| require plugin }

new_classes = []
ObjectSpace.each_object(Class) { |obj|  
  new_classes << obj unless before_classes.include?(obj)
}


And then you can further check the loaded classes (in new_classes
array) by using the respond_to? method (check to see if it is a Duck
:-)
