What happens in memory when you add to an object's prototype in the constructor? Does it get it recreated every time you make a new object?
For example:
function Foo(){
Foo.prototype.bar = function() {
console.log("bar func called");
}
}
var x = new Foo();
x.bar();
var y = new Foo();
y.bar();
The "nature" of the code doesn't matter, it's executed every time you call it. This means that yes, every time you call new Foo() the function bar of the prototype is reassigned.
This also means that every Foo object out there get a new bar method, even those that already existed.
All code that you put in a function runs every time you call that function, even if said code assigns a property of a prototype.
Yes it does. The creation code will be executed each time you instantiate Foo.
