This might be a good candidate for getting the static initialization code
block working (it is currently not in js).
We discussed that recently in another thread.
public class MyClass{
{//static init block
COMPILE::JS{
Object.defineProperty(MyClass.prototype,"0",
{
"get": function(){return this},
"set": function(){},
enumerable: true,
configurable: true
}
);
}
}
public function MyClass (){
}
}
