Why do anything fancy? An instance know which class it is. Just ask for the .class and then get that Class's .name. irb2.1.3> class Foo; end #2.1.3 => nil irb2.1.3> class Bar < Foo; end #2.1.3 => nil irb2.1.3> class Baz < Foo; end #2.1.3 => nil irb2.1.3> foo = Foo.new #2.1.3 => #<Foo:0x007f98940cb528> irb2.1.3> foo.class.name #2.1.3 => "Foo" irb2.1.3> bar = Bar.new #2.1.3 => #<Bar:0x007f98940b55c0> irb2.1.3> bar.class.name #2.1.3 => "Bar" irb2.1.3> baz = Baz.new #2.1.3 => #<Baz:0x007f98940b38d8> irb2.1.3> baz.class.name #2.1.3 => "Baz" -Rob -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
