1) if you have shared objects between classes, put them in closures to avoid
global scope:
(function(){
var foo = new Hash();
this.MyClass = new Class({...}); //"this" here is the window
})();
2) the proper solution here is what you have; to declare the hash on
instantiation. If you want to be able to extend that object with subclasses,
then you can make the property an object and cast it to a hash on init:
var Foo = new Class({
bar: {...},
initialize: function(){
this.h_bar = new Hash(this.bar);
}
});
var Foo2 = new Class({
Extends: Foo,
bar: { ...some other stuff...},
etc...
});
