Subject: Eval and block problems

Please help me to wrap my mind around this. I want to achieve the following:

class A
  def self.def_me(cmd, &block)
    eval %(
      def #{cmd}()
         do things
         # CALL BLOCK
      end
    )
  end

  def_me("foo") do
    # access instance of A
  end
end

A.new.foo

and have the block from the dynamically created method foo be
evaluated in the binding of the instance of A.

I'm sure this is possible, but I've never really grocked eval,
instance_eval and class_eval.

best regards,

Brian
