Subject: reliable way of finding Objects Class?

Hi,

is there a reliable way to find the Object's Class.  I know about 
class and type, but what happens if they are overridden?

how do you find it then?

for instance how to find the class at runtime for the following :

class Obj
	def class
		"Not My Class"
	end

	def type
		"don't look here for it"
	end
end

I am sure it is very simple, I just can't seem to find it.


Any hints would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks,

Walt
