Subject: Best way to get a class object from its name?

All,

In my Rails app., I'm doing something like this:

eval("#{requested_controller_class}.respond_to?('session_data_not_needed_by?')")

where requested_controller_class is the name of an existing (controller)
class.

Is the above code the best of way of invoking respond_to? on the class
in question, or is there some better way to get the actual class object
based solely on it's name?

Thanks,
Wes
