[racket] Help: Passing a class to a macro and not an identifier

Would this help you: 

#lang racket

(define a%
  (class object% 
    (init-field this.x)
    (define/public (foo x)
      (set! this.x x))
    (define/public (bar)
      this.x)
    (super-new)))

(new a% [this.x 10])

(define (generic-methods class%)
  (map (lambda (name) (list name (make-generic class% name)))
       (interface->method-names (class->interface class%))))

(generic-methods a%)
