Hey Rainer,

I use schema classes like this all the time. Just soooo much more easy
then either defining loads of unused instance/local vars to use in a
$define or doing loads of $cols.$add calls. I have memory only schema
classes (as I've dubbed them, have to give em a name) for loads of
frequently used structures. Its also a great way to document methods
that get a list or row parameter and you want to communicate how these
lists/rows need to be defined for a proper method call instead of
leaving your team mates guessing and reverse engineering your code.

Well you can generate them on the fly but I'd need to see a good example
why you would, if I need a structure defined on the fly,I just use
$cols.$add on a list/row just as Brian suggested.
