Hi Charlie,
thanks for sharing this, it looks most useful. I downloaded and ran it; the
testcases run ok. I cannot figure out how to make it write MyClass.class;
please forgive me my Ruby-ignorance here. I removed the things I though to
be for the testcase only, and have it execute outside of a method. It
executes ok, but Erik Meijer would be very happy: there are no side-effects.
That I know of.

best regards and thanks in advance.

René.
