Constructor or init function for an object

rated 0 times [ 163] [ 3] / answers: 1 / hits: 39698 / 13 Years ago, tue, february 14, 2012, 12:00:00

I was looking for a constructor or a init function for following situation:

var Abc = function(aProperty,bProperty){

   this.aProperty = aProperty;

   this.bProperty = bProperty;

}; 

Abc.prototype.init = function(){

   // Perform some operation

};



//Creating a new Abc object using Constructor.



var currentAbc = new Abc(obj,obj);



//currently I write this statement:

currentAbc.init();

Is there a way to call init function when new object is initialized?

You can just call init() from the constructor function

var Abc = function(aProperty,bProperty){

   this.aProperty = aProperty;

   this.bProperty = bProperty;

   this.init();

};
