Hi Eric, > If I was the author, I will new parent directly and assign it to > klass.prototype.
That would imply calling the initialize method of the parent class which is something you'd want avoid. > So why use usbclass as broker ? subclass is an empty function (parent isn't: it calls parent.prototype.initialize), so instantiating it to define klass.prototype doesn't have any potentially unwanted side effects. Hope this clarifies your question.
