mattr_accessor

Extends the module object with module and instance accessors for class attributes, just like the native attr* accessors for instance attributes.

 module AppConfiguration
   mattr_accessor :google_api_key
   self.google_api_key = "123456789"

   mattr_accessor :paypal_url
   self.paypal_url = "www.sandbox.paypal.com"
 end

 AppConfiguration.google_api_key = "overriding the api key!"
