Microsoft® JScript™ constructor Property | Language Reference Version 2

See Also Applies To

##### Description

> Specifies the function that creates an object.

##### Syntax

> object.constructor

> The required object argument is the name of an object or function.

##### Remarks

> The constructor property is a member of the prototype of every object that has a prototype. This includes all intrinsic JScript objects except the Global and Math objects. The constructor property contains a reference to the function that constructs instances of that particular object. For example:

> >     x = new String("Hi");
> >     if (x.constructor == String)
> >        //  Do something (the condition will be true).

> or

> >     function MyFunc {
> >     // Body of function.
> >     }

> >     y = new MyFunc;
> >     if (y.constructor == MyFunc)
> >        //  Do something (the condition will be true).
