Question

The idea behind partial classes is that you can group certain functions together. The best example of this in C# is putting control definitions in one file and the event han

I'm expanding upon Raynos' partial classes example. The following is tested and works:

//  In Car.js
function Car(domelement, wheels, engine, color) {

    //  Wire in partial classes from other files
    for(var i = 0, ii = Car.Partial.length; i < ii; i++) {
         Car.Partial[i].apply(this, arguments);
    }
}
Car.Partial = [];  //  Prepare for declaration of additional partial classes

//  In Car.Events.js
Car.Partial[0] = function Events() {
    //  Create some events on Car with jQuery
    $(this.domelem).click(function() { alert('Car clicked.'); });
}
