What are you trying to do? If you don’t explain it properly, nobody  
will be able to help.

</div>

In application\_helper.rb

def get\_set(var)  
attr\_accessor :myvar  
myvar = var  
end

In controller

@customers = Customer.find(:all)  
get\_set(@customers)

I want to generate get and set method

## Sir, sir, sir… what are you trying to do. Please study Ruby basics before writing any Rails code. This will help: [http://www.rubyist.net/~slagell/ruby/accessors.html](http://www.rubyist.net/~slagell/ruby/accessors.html)

## Moreover, whatever you are trying to do in rails also, I believe, is wrong & unnecessary.
