// Mythical constructor-based Class Implementation Syntax


// Create a new class by subclassing Class
var MyClass = Class(function(){
	
	this.initialize = function(){
		console.log('MyClass::initialize')
	};
	
	this.method = function(argument){
		console.log('grand pappy Method!');

var MySubClass = MyClass.subclass(function(parent){
	
	this.initialize = function(){
		parent.call(this);

		parent.method2.call(this);

// Since creator functions are just functions that get passed certain arguments,
//     we can define some default builder functions
var defaultPropertyCreator = function(Property, Public, Private){
	Property.get = function(){
		return Private[Property.key];
	};
	Property.set = function(value){
		Private[Property.key] = value;

// You can even add crazy mutated methods! 
MySubClass.defineProperty('hairColor', defaultPropertyCreator);
MySubClass.defineProperty('eyeColor', defaultPropertyCreator);

MySubClass.defineProperties({
	height:defaultPropertyCreator,
	width: function(a,c,b){
		defaultPropertyCreator(a,b,c);
		a.default = 0.5;
	}
});


// Instantiation
var myClass = new MyClass;
var mySubClass = new MySubClass;
