Ruby on Rails

You might want something like this.

class Foo

end

Foo.instance_eval do

  def class_name

    self.name

  end

end

class Bar < Foo

end

class Tar < Foo

end

puts Foo.class_name

#=> Foo

puts Bar.class_name

#=> Bar

puts Tar.class_name

#=> Tar

Is not instance method, is class method... My bad

Is there a way for me to do that on ruby ?

class Foo

  def self.class_name

    self.class.name

  end

end

class Bar < Foo

end

class Tar < Foo

end

Bar.class_name 

= 'Bar'

Tar.class_name

= 'Tar'

I want to get the class name of the class who called the instance method from the parent class.

I tried the code above and it keeps getting me 'Class' as the result.

Is that possible in ruby ?
