Hi Tashos. This is just how JavaScript works. An object (map) is a
"reference type' in JavaScript. That means that regardless of how many
variables are assigned that same value, they'll all get a reference to the
one and only actual object. So when you create your object in the
*members* section
like this:
...
members :
{
x : {}
},
...
you are, at that very moment, creating the empty object and stating that as
each instance of the object is created, the x member should "point to"
(reference, in JavaScript parlance) that one single object.
Your solution of initializing the member in the constructor is the correct
one.
Cheers,
Derrell
