(function(win){ 
win.StringBuffer = function(){ 
this.datas = []; 
} 
var proto = StringBuffer.prototype; 
proto.append = function(value){ 
this.datas.push(value); 
}, 
proto.toString = function(){ 
return this.datas.join(""); 
} 
})(window); 如果使用extend方法,可以象下面这样写组件:
(function(win){ 
win.extend(win,{ 
StringBuilder : function(){ 
this.datas = []; 
} 
}); 
win.extend(StringBuilder.prototype, { 
append : function(value){ 
this.datas.push(value); 
}, 
toString : function(){ 
return this.datas.join(""); 
} 
}); 
})(window); 两种方法的效果一样,但是extend方法还可以做更多事件,比如插件式开发,跟第二种方式很象。
当然,如果你本来就想写jQuery插件,那就直接用jQuery的extend就可以啦。
