Shortcut for programmatically executing a class side method ?

Hi,

Does there exist a shortcut for programmatically executing a class side method ?

For example,

String class>>#loremIpsum in: [ :method |
method methodClass instanceSide perform: method selector ].

I was looking for a shortcut, like #eval, #execute, #value or something like that.

(String class>>#loremIpsum) eval.

Normally, primitive 188 and 189 execute a method (the receiver is the method receiver).

Maybe search for senders...
