NAME
  shared.rb

DESCRIPTION
  shared.rb provides a super easy way to share code between classes or modules
  in a simple way.  shared code can be at the class and/or instance level and
  users deferred evaluation so this is more powerful that the normal ruby
  module inclusion facilities on which it is based.

SYNOPSIS
  require 'shared'

  Shared 'methods' do
    class << self
      attr :classname
    end

    @classname = name.downcase

    def objectname
      self.class.classname + "(#{ object_id })"
    end
  end    

  class C
    include Shared('methods')
  end

  class B
    include Shared('methods')
  end

  p C.classname      #=> 'c'
  p C.new.objectname #=> 'c(1234)'

  p B.classname      #=> 'b'
  p B.new.objectname #=> 'b(4567)'
