Subject: Re: binding - how to get current script?

I could write:

        eval("$name = 'Alice')
        puts $name

but it is not smart solution. Exactly what I want to do is:

        pgResult.fields.each_with_index do |fieldName,i| 
            eval(%Q[ #{fieldName} = '#{pgResult.result[0][i]}' ]) 
        end

alternative code

        fname, sname, age, height, sex = pgResult.result.flatten

but if my table in DB has 30 fields the line above isn't so nice so this is
the reason why I decided to use eval() for this dirty work :-)
