[Rails-spinoffs] Mixing In JS Getters and Setters with Class.create

[Antoine Quint]

Hi,

I'm trying to mix native JS getters and setters with Class.create,  
with little success so far. Here's what I tried:

=====8<=====

var MyClass = {};

MyClass.__defineGetter__('test', function() {
  alert('inside getter');
  return 'foo';
});

MyClass.__defineSetter__('test', function(new_value) {
  alert('inside setter');
  return new_value;
});

MyClass = Class.create(MyClass);

var foo = new MyClass();
foo.test; // should alert 'inside getter'
foo.test = 'bar'; // should alert 'inside setter'

=====>8=====

Evaluating this code with prototype 1.6.0.2 I only get the 'inside  
getter' message alerted, but not the setter one, so getters resist  
Class.create but not setters. Is there something wrong I'm doing or  
are setters just not supported in prototype?

I'll note that I'm working against Safari on iPhone only so I'm not  
worried about compatibility issues while using JS getters and setters.

Thanks for your help,

Antoine
