Subject: how to get objects of type Class to play with NSCoder?

I'm trying to archive an NSMutableDictionary where the objects are of type Class. Class doesn't seem to work well with encodeObject:forKey:, so I need to handle it manually. How do I do this?

I'm guessing I need to pick apart the dictionary and manually archive something I can recreate the Class object from, most likely a string holding the class name, but I can't seem to find any documentation on Class. Is there a way to request the class name as an NSString, and to create a Class given an NSString holding it's name?

Thanks.
