Guys, thank you for pointing me to erik's weblog.
What is the proposed strategy for defining methods which should be
available for all classes, created by "var MyClass = new Class({});"
schema?
If I define these generic methods by "Object.extend({ genericMethod :
function(){}};" way, they aren't available for any objects. For
example anObject = new Object(); wont't have these methods.
Should I define these methods in every MyClass and invoke the
Object.genericMethod( this )? This is the way to go ahead? Or should I
define my own generic base class?
Thank you,
Zsolt
