I'm trying to define an object and create an accessor property for it.

HTML:

<input type='hidden' id='crudMode' value='Create' />

JavaScript:

crudMode = {

   create: Create,

   read: Read,

   update: Update,

   delete: Delete,

   current: function () { return $('#crudMode').val(); }

}



Object.defineProperty(crudMode, 'mode', {

    get: function(){

        return this.current();

    },

    set: function(value){ 

        $('#crudMode').val(value);

    }

});

But when I use it, it throws the mentioned error in the question title:

console.log(crudMode.mode);

Throws:

TypeError: can't redefine non-configurable property 'mode'

What's wrong here?
