Subject: eval vs. class_eval

Howdy everyone,

Can anyone explain to me why

class Fil
  def self.add_class name
    class_eval "#{name.capitalize} = Class.new(self)"
  end
end

behaves differently than

class Fil
  def self.add_class name
    eval "#{name.capitalize} = Class.new(self)"
  end
end

especially with regards the dynamic placement of the classes created on
the fly?

Thank you!
Carl
