But how can I be sure that nobody can alter the class at runtime?

---------------------------
By using Ruby's safe levels.
$SAFE = 4
Will set the paranoia level to its highest ;) Ruby documentation says
the following:
">= 4 Ruby effectively partitions the running program in two. Nontainted
objects may not be modified. Typically, this will be used to create a
sandbox: the program sets up an environment using a lower $SAFE level,
then resets $SAFE to 4 to prevent subsequent changes to that
environment."
