member function - PRIVATE:

class C { private: void implementation() {} };

// NO JAVASCRIPT EQUIVALENT

Isnt it as follows??

function C() { var implementation = function() { }; }

nope Andrey. It’s slower.

function C(){ this.getData = function(){ return true; } } better is function C(){} function C.prototype.getData() { return true; }

When not preceded with a class name in dot notation, nested functions in JavaScript are not static methods. By necessity, static methods can only access static members. Clearly nested functions can access instance members and thus they must not be static. They must, instead, be instance methods.

FireFox and Safari may well allow these nested functions to be called as public static methods of the class. This means that these two userAgents have a namespace collision between public static methods and private instance methods. That is to say that, by declaring one, you automatically declare the other. What this means is that these methods will have undesired behavior when called in whichever context they were not designed for. However, we must point out that constructors in Javascript face the same dilema since they too can be called statically.

for member private function do that:


function C(){
  var mprivatefunc = function(){
  }

this.getData = function(){ mprivatefunc(); }
}
