Creating a class dynamically

Question

I\'m trying to create a new class, without knowing the name of the class until it\'s supposed to på created.

Something like this;

    variable = \"V         


        

Answer 1

Your code would look something akin to this:

variable = "SomeClassName"
klass = Class.new(ParentClass)
# ...maybe evaluate some code in the context of the new, anonymous class
klass.class_eval {  }
# ...or define some methods
klass.send(:title, :Person)
klass.send(:attribute, :name, String)
# Finally, name that class!
ParentClass.send(:const_set, variable, klass)

...or you could just use eval:

eval <
