Both are premature optimisations to begin with.
The first does 1 action less when y is truthy, namely the assignment.
The second always does the assignment, whether y is truthy or falsy.
The difference in performance is minute tbh…

I always tend to use the first because it’s usually inside a function that gets called a lot.

What is the difference between

y || (y = x.message);

and

y = y || x.message;

The second form seems more easily readable to me.

Comment on Ok, it’s called JSoo now ^^ by John-David Dalton

I really dig the JSoo.Module cache stuff. It could also be done on the target object level via this.cache and having the attached modules access it directly but I like that its a private variable shared between all attached modules (keeps the module cache seperate from the object they are being attached to). Very cool stuff.

Oh, I also like that with JSoo I can access all donor objects.

Comment on So I reinvented prototype.js… by NetBen

Oh and I have to confess, I have broken some eggs in JSoo since it doesn’t support linear inheritance properly like YUI does, though the problem only shows when you change the property hashes AFTER you initiated instances and only in multi level inheritance, quite obscure actually… still a challenge to fix ^^
