How can I access the new javascript keyword from scala.js? -

i porting javascript library scalajs. js objects created new keyword on javascript side, in cases.

trait point extends js.object {   def normalize(length: double): point = js.native } 

this seems work methods, however, doesn't work constructors.

@jsname("paper.point") object pointnative extends js.object {   def apply(props: rectprops): rectangle = js.native } 

the above code not work. passes type checks , compiles, @ runtime returns undefined.

if modified pointnative good.

import js.dynamic.{ global => g, newinstance => jsnew } object pointnative {   def apply(props: rectprops): rectangle = jsnew(g.paper.point)(props).asinstanceof[point] } 

is there way use @jsname , js.native new keyword?

thanks!

since, in javascript api, paper.point needs instantiated new keyword, need define pointnative class:

@jsname("paper.point") class pointnative(props: pointprops) extends js.object {   ... } 

which allows instantiate with

new pointnative(props) 

just have done in javascript.

if want able instantiate just

pointnative(props) 

then need define additional, non-js.object companion apply() method:

object pointnative {   def apply(props: pointprops): pointnative = new pointnative(props) } 

note that, if need companion pointnative js.object (because want define static methods of paper.point in it), can pimp apply() on implicit class instead:

implicit class pointnativecompanionops(val self: pointnative.type) extends anyval {   def apply(props: pointprops): pointnative = new pointnative(props) }
