Subject: String constant reference to another class instance variable

Hello.

How can I be able to do something like this:

class Connection
  attr_accessor :socket, :name

  def initialize name
    @name = name
  end

  def connect
    @socket = TCPSocket.new
  end

  def saysomething
    'phora'.say('hi!')
  end
end

class String
  def say message
    @socket.puts("#{self} says #{message}")
  end
end

conn = Connection.new "Mikkel"
conn.connect
conn.saysomething

String.socket = conn.socket # Something like this…

- Without having to use 'phora'.say('hi!', @socket)?

Sincerely,
Mikkel Kroman.
