Kemal,

Try:

MyClass class>>createMethod: methodName

self compile: methodName , '

^''this is a code-generated method''' classified: 'generated'.

Make sure you put the method on the class side, or else do a self class compile:classified:

Check out the "Terse Guide to Squeak," attached...

Take care,

Rob
