Why do you say it doesn't work?  (In other words, how is it not working for
you?)

  irb(main):001:0> class Foo
  irb(main):002:1>   @@bar = 5
  irb(main):003:1>
  irb(main):004:1*   def Foo.bar
  irb(main):005:2>     @@bar
  irb(main):006:2>   end
  irb(main):007:1> end
  nil
  irb(main):008:0> Foo.bar
  5
  irb(main):009:0>
