how to create a class in classic jscript?

Question

how to create a class in classic jscript? (not jscript.net)

And, how to reference this class?.

I tried with

class someclass {


}

but it does not work.

Answer 1

There are no classes in jscript. You can make an object constructor:

function someclass() {
  this.answer = 42;
}

You use it like a class:

var obj = new someclass();

To make methods you add functions to its prototype:

someclass.prototype.getAnswer = function() {
  return this.answer;
}

Usage:

var ans = obj.getAnswer();

Answer 2

There are not classes as such, but here's a simple example of how to get basic object-oriented functionality. If this is all you need, great, but if you're after other features of classes, such as inheritance, someone more knowledgeable than myself will have to help.

function SomeClass(n) {
    this.some_property = n;
    this.some_method = function() {
        WScript.Echo(this.some_property);
    };
}

var foo = new SomeClass(3);
var bar = new SomeClass(4);
foo.some_method();
bar.some_property += 2;
bar.some_method();
