In JavaScript, we can't define access modifiers like protected or private to properties or methods in ES6 classes. However, we can still use the common convention of surrounding a property or method with an underscore to indicate that it's intended to be protected.
To call a protected static property on an instance of a class, we need to use the class name instead of the instance name, like so:
index.tsx159 chars8 lines
In this example, we define a protected static property _myProtectedProperty
on the MyClass
class. Then, we create an instance of MyClass
called myInstance
. Finally, when we want to access the value of _myProtectedProperty
, we use MyClass._myProtectedProperty
instead of myInstance._myProtectedProperty
.
