Hybrid Method for class inheritance

In the SubClass constructor, object masquerading is used to inherit the color property from BaseClass.

Then prototype chaining is used to inherit the methods of BaseClass.



function BaseClass(sColor) {
    this.color = sColor;
}

BaseClass.prototype.sayColor = function () {
    alert(this.color);
};

function SubClass(sColor, sName) {

    BaseClass.call(this, sColor);
    this.name = sName;
}

SubClass.prototype = new BaseClass();

SubClass.prototype.sayName = function () {
    alert(this.name);
};

var objA = new BaseClass("red");
var objB = new SubClass("blue", "MyName");
objA.sayColor();
objB.sayColor();
objB.sayName();
