Thanks, I did catch up that far on the thread, but Allen reiterated the
point he'd made months ago: you can't hoist *and initialize* the class
declaration as you can a function declaration. Rather, class decl is
like const decl. That was my point.
If "hoist" means only the binding, with a TDZ protecting use before
in-evaluation-order init, then we agree.
I'm probably missing something, but since the current proposal
is meant to be sugar around the old constructor/prototype pattern:
- would it make sense to name the constructor after the class
(avoiding 'constructor' and 'new')?
- could we think of hoisting a class as hoisting its constructor
(the hoisted binding wouldn't be undefined, but shouldn't
be called before initialization, either)?
