Class Name

Message #94867 of 143988 |

Hello

1) It is possible to call a methode of a class by using a string?

Example : myString := 'car'. /where car is a class name.

I want by using myString, call the "run" methode of a object of car : myString run.

Can some body explain how to do? Please

2) How to get the class name of a object? I try myObject className, but it doesn't perform.

Best regards.
