    <p>This <strong>is</strong> possible.</p> <pre><code>class Object class &lt;&lt; self Kernel.send :define_method, :foo do #Object.send to be more restrictive @foo = 'bar' end end end </code></pre> <p>.</p> <pre><code>irb(main):023:0&gt; class Object irb(main):024:1&gt; class &lt;&lt; self irb(main):025:2&gt; Kernel.send :define_method, :foo do irb(main):026:3* @foo = 'bar' irb(main):027:3&gt; end irb(main):028:2&gt; end irb(main):029:1&gt; end =&gt; #&lt;Proc:0x00007f5ac89db168@(irb):25&gt; irb(main):030:0&gt; x = Object.new =&gt; #&lt;Object:0x7f5ac89d6348&gt; irb(main):031:0&gt; x.foo =&gt; "bar" irb(main):032:0&gt; [].foo =&gt; "bar" irb(main):033:0&gt; //.foo =&gt; "bar" </code></pre> <p>It's important to understand eigenclasses. Every class is implemented mysteriously by the Ruby interpreter as a hidden class type:</p> <pre><code>irb(main):001:0&gt; class Object irb(main):002:1&gt; def eigenclass irb(main):003:2&gt; class &lt;&lt; self; self; end irb(main):004:2&gt; end irb(main):005:1&gt; end =&gt; nil irb(main):006:0&gt; x = Object.new =&gt; #&lt;Object:0x7fb6f285cd10&gt; irb(main):007:0&gt; x.eigenclass =&gt; #&lt;Class:#&lt;Object:0x7fb6f285cd10&gt;&gt; irb(main):008:0&gt; Object.eigenclass =&gt; #&lt;Class:Object&gt; irb(main):009:0&gt; Object.class =&gt; Class </code></pre> <p>So, in your example, when you're trying to call foo on your objects, it's operating on the class <code>#&lt;Object:0x7fb6f285cd10&gt;</code>. However, what you want it to operate on is the secret class <code>#&lt;Class:#&lt;Object:0x7fb6f285cd10&gt;&gt;</code></p> <p>I hope this helps!</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
